Coming through

Evolution Studios may have faced a torrid time with the launch of MotorStorm: Apocalypse last year, but that’s not stopped the developer from dusting itself off and looking to the future. The Runcorn-based studio is currently hiring for its next project which, if two job listings are to be believed, is a new entry in the off-road racing series.

The applications for an Applied Physics programmer and Graphics Technology programmer pay particular reference to MotorStorm related technologies. Vehicle dynamics, body physics, character ragdolls and, excitingly, fluid dynamics are all referenced in the ads.

Regular readers will know we’ve been appealing for a water-based MotorStorm for years now. Obviously we’re keeping our fingers crossed.

But whether Evolution’s next project takes place on the waves or not, it’s pretty clear from the job listings that the studio is looking to overhaul its technology, leading us to believe it's working on next generation hardware. Exciting times, indeed.
