Back 4 Blood developer Turtle Rock has begun recruiting for its next game project, which the studio describes as a mix of FPS and multiplayer, similar to its previous game Back 4 Blood. The studio, which includes several Left 4 Dead veterans, is now looking for a senior combat designer to join the team, according to a job posting on Glassdoor (via GamesRadar).
According to the listing, Turtle Rock seeks a developer with a love for “specifically FPS, co-op, and multiplayer games,” and experience with “developing first-person shooting and melee” gameplay. Additionally, the candidate will also be experienced in developing combat, weapons, class design, skills, and boss encounters.
The studio first announced that it was working on a new project back in February, and also announced that it was ending development on Back 4 Blood to focus on its next game. As a “pretty small studio” for the types of games that it makes, Turtle Rock said that it didn’t have enough employees to both support Back 4 Blood and work on a new game, even after it was acquired by Tencent in December 2021. “Yes, another game! Given this, it’s time for us to put our heads down, get back in the lab, and get to work on the next big thing,” Turtle Rock said in its announcement.
