Report: Activision to Launch UK Mobile Games Studio
Martyn Brown to head-hunt for talent.
Activision is reportedly set to launch a brand new studio in the UK, dedicated to mobile games, with legendary British developer Martyn Brown appointed to head-hunt for domestic talent.
According to a report on Develop, "Plans on where the new studio will be established have not been finalised [but] individuals at various studios in the north of England have met with Brown to discuss job opportunities." How very interesting...
For what it's worth, Activision responded to the news with a statement that reads, "We are investing in mobile initiatives and that includes a UK studio." Fair enough. Martyn Brown didn't even comment. We'll keep an eye on this one, just to see what happens - should be quite a step forward for Activision if it proves to be true.
