Sledgehammer is looking to build a small team for an 'unexpected' project under Unreal Engine

After more than 13 years working on Call of Dutythe Sledgehammer Games studio could well want to try something else, of course we imagine it with a B team while the main one will continue to devote itself to the main ABK franchise (they are the lead team for episode 2027) , but this is in any case what operations director Andrew Wilson clearly implied by posting on LinkedIn that he was looking for 8 additional developers to show a small team on an “unexpected” project and, surprise, this times under Unreal Engine 5.

Unfortunately, the post in question has since been deleted, either because the chosen 8 have already been found (or because even Andrew Wilson should not discuss future plans so openly) but if confirmed, it would in any case be a message displayed in connection with Xbox's desire to give certain ABK teams the choice to try something else or, why not, return to somewhat forgotten franchises.
