Crystal Dynamics Title to be Announced Soon, Level Artist “Creating Wildly Cool Environments”

Just after E3 2012, information about a new IP from Crystal Dynamics surfaced. Based off of job listings, the game is set to be “a cutting edge, original IP for future platforms” and an Animation Engineer position highlighted that it will be “third-person action adventure AAA titles.”

Pre-dating that job listing news was a rumor that suggested Crystal Dynamics was working on a reboot of Soul Reaver, the second game in the Legacy of Kain franchise.

Looking at his experience, he goes on to say that, from January 2012 until now, he’s been “working closely with all disciplines to create unique, efficient and malleable levels. more on that to come…”
