The Look North World team is already working on a shooter powered by Unreal for Fortnite.
EA, Bungie, and Kongerate veterans announced they decided to launch a new game development studio called Look North World. The new team was assembled by Alex Seropian, Jay Pecho, Patrick Moran, Kyle Marks, Aaron Marroquin, and Prashant Patil.
Alex Seropian, who previously worked for Bungie Studios, will be the team's CEO. Pecho will be acting as the chief financial officer, Morgan will be the chief operating officer, Marks will act as the studio's creative director, and Marroquin will be the team's principal artist. What is more, the team shared Patil will be Look North World's art director.
The studio also revealed they are working on its first game, Outlaw Corral, which is described as a Wild West-inspired shooter. The experience will be available on Unreal Engine for Fortnite. The team added it is the first of several games being developed.
"Developing in UEFN opens a whole new world of opportunities, and we are in uncharted territory. Through experimentation, we will see what the players like and involve them in decisions", said Seropian. "We are jumping into it with a 'the virtual sky is the limit' mentality. As we develop creative ideas, we will learn how these platforms engage, entertain and boost social interactions in order to iterate accordingly."
