God of War 2 director Cory Barlog joins Crystal Dynamics
Cory Barlog, who served as writer and director for God of War 2, as well as “story creator” for Ghost of Sparta and creative director for Chains of Olympus, has joined Crystal Dynamics to work on its forthcoming Tomb Raider reboot and “a yet to be announced new title.”
Its unclear what this transition may mean for Barlog’s Mad Max project, which was reportedly in production at Avalanche Studios. “I can’t comment on our project, but all I can say is that the projects we’ve been working on for the last two years and the one we recently started up in NY are sailing along like never before,” said Avalanche Studios founder Christofer Sundberg in a statement to Eurogamer.
This either means that Mad Max is continuing without Barlog at Avalanche Studios, or that it was never there to begin with. Either way, we’re looking forward to seeing what kind of vengeful, face-painting influence Barlog has on Lara Croft’s future, and whether his presence at Crystal Dynamics could finally lead to Gex of War.Continue reading God of War 2 director Cory Barlog joins Crystal DynamicsGod of War 2 director Cory Barlog joins Crystal Dynamics originally appeared on Joystiq on Fri, 02 Mar 2012 14:30:00 EST.
