Days Gone developer Sony Bend is potentially working on a multiplayer game as its next project, according to a new job listing.
The advertisement that has fueled speculation asks for a new senior network programmer to join the Oregon-based studio. While Sony Bend doesn’t have a history of creating multiplayer titles, it does coincide with a number of recent job listings that were posted to several of PlayStation‘s studios allegedly working on multiplayer projects.
Insomniac Games was the most recent culprit of this, as the Spider-Man maker listed five positions for a “new unknown multiplayer project”.
A video detailing what a career at PlayStation could entail can be watched below:
Earlier this year, it was reported that Naughty Dog was also hiring developers to help create a new multiplayer title – specifically, looking for someone with a “robust knowledge of multiplayer action games.”
“We are seeking a senior network programmer to contribute to our development process on a AAA game,” reads the jobs description.
“This position specialises in specific areas of programming that centres around the support of low-level network issues (ex: TCP, UDP, etcetera.), multiplayer engine design/architecture, PSN platform services, digital rights management, patching and digital commerce.”
