New Studio Emerges As Bungie Founder & EA Veterans Team Up

In an exciting development for the gaming world, a group of seasoned developers from industry giants Bungie, EA, and Kongerate have joined forces to establish a brand-new studio.

The brainchild of Alex Seropian, Jay Pecho, Patrick Moran, Kyle Marks, Aaron Marroquin, and Prashant Patil, Look North World is set to make waves in the gaming community. Of course, Seropian needs no introduction as one of the founders of Bungie, the renowned studio responsible for the epic Halo and Destiny franchises.

Taking on key roles within Look North World, Jay Pecho assumes the position of Chief Technology Officer, Aaron Marroquin brings his artistic prowess as the principal artist, Prashant Patil takes the reins as art director, and Kyle Marks leads the creative direction.

The team’s maiden venture, titled Outlaw Corral, is currently in development using Unreal Engine specifically tailored for Fortnite. This exciting game transports players to a wild west island where they engage in skill-based shootouts. But what’s intriguing is that Look North World stands to profit from the number of players who partake in their Fortnite “island” creations built with Unreal Engine.

“Venturing into Unreal Engine for Fortnite opens up a world of untapped possibilities, and we’re diving into uncharted waters,” Seropian revealed. “By embracing experimentation, we’ll gauge player preferences and actively involve them in decision-making processes.”

“We’re wholeheartedly embracing a ‘the virtual sky is the limit’ mentality,” he continued. “As we nurture creative concepts, we’ll learn how these platforms foster engagement, entertainment, and social interactions, allowing us to iterate accordingly.”

Players eager to contribute their ideas and shape future Look North World games can actively participate by joining the company’s Discord community. To sweeten the deal, the first 1,000 Discord members will gain exclusive access to the company’s Beta Test channel, offering them the chance to test new games before they hit the market.
