  • Epic Confirms Three More New Departures From Gears Of War: Judgment

    People Can Fly, a studio based in Warsaw, Poland which was behind titles like Painkiller, Gears of War(porting on PC), Gears of War 2 (additional development) and 2011′s wacky title Bulletstorm, bid adieu to creative director Adrian Chmielarz and two more top artists, according to Gears developer Epic Games and Adrian Chmielarz himself.

    “Gears fans, you’re going to love Judgment. It’s in great hands,” Chmielarz said via Twitter EDT. “And don’t worry, you’ll hear about my plans soon enough.”

    According to a statement provided to Kotaku, Epic Game’s president Mike Capps confirmed his departure, also stating that two more have left the development team.

    “Adrian Chmielarz, Andrzej Poznanski and Michal Kosieradzki have parted ways with People Can Fly and Epic Games in order to pursue other opportunities, which they will announce of their own accord,” Capps said. “Over the past decade, they have been instrumental in building People Can Fly into the talented team that it is today. We wish them well in their future endeavors. People Can Fly remains excited to release Gears of War: Judgment to fans early next year.”

    It was confirmed on 1st June 2012 that People Can Fly will be co-developing the title with Epic Games.

    One can now only hope that the release of Judgment is on track and not delayed by this sad news.

    Gears of War: Judgment is a third-person shooter that Epic Games and People Can Fly are co-developing as the fourth title within the Gears of War series, a follow-up that Microsoft Game Studios intends to publish for the Xbox 360 in the United States on 19 March 2013.

    Not long ago when we got the news of another Gears-related departure: Rod Fergusson, Epic’s director of production, last week confirmed he’d departed from Epic Games to join Irrational Games to lend a hand with Bioshock: Infinite, which is going through some troubles and was pushed back for a 2013 release.

  • Epic Games Acquires ‘BulletStorm’ Creators People Can Fly

    Just past week we got the news of three senior employees leaving Poland-based studio People Can Fly, co-developers for the upcoming XBOX 360 title Gears Of War: Judgment, Epic Games has apparently purchased the rest of the development studio.

    While Epic Games, owner of the Gears Of War series and Unreal Engine, had a majority of stake on the studio since 2007, now proceeds to fully own the Poland-based People Can Fly.

    According to Mark Rein, VP of Epic Games: “One of the things that got missed with that story was that we bought the rest of People Can Fly that we didn’t own. We didn’t announce that, so that was also part of it.” he stated at Game Developers Conference being held in Europe.

    “But now we own it all. We had a controlling stake, but the owner still owned a fairly large piece of it.” he said. The “owners” he mentioned refers to the people who left the development team last week to do something different despite being in the middle of the development of Judgment. ”They left, they’re gonna do their own thing. They have something cool they’re gonna do, and we’ll be very supportive of it.” Rein said.

    It’s uncertain at this point that how much Epic Games paid for the acquisition of People Can Fly. With this latest acquisition, Epic Games now wholly owns five subsidiaries: Chair, Impossible Games, People Can Fly, Epic Japan and Epic Korea.

    Some are speculating that the real reason behind the departure of the three senior employees; Adrian Chmielarz, Andrzej Poznanski and Michal Kosieradzki, was the acquisition of People Can Fly by Epic.

    Despite the departures, including the departure of Epic Games, now former, director of production, Rod Fergusson, Rein assures that it won’t have any negative impact on the development of Judgment.

  • Gears Of War 3 Leaked Early By Pirates, Playable On Hacked Xbox 360

    It seems like Gears of War 3 was leaked about 2 months prior to its official release date. This leak doesn’t seem to be of the final version, instead it looks like to be some sort of incomplete version since the Multiplayer mode is still unfinished. It is only playable on a specially hacked Xbox 360 called “JTAG” or Devkits(Which we know aren’t available to common folks)

    Moments after this leak, videos are popping up everywhere over the internet of the game’s main story and campaign mode and right now the internet is filled with spoilers regarding this game. While any “JTAG” Xbox 360 owner can enjoy this release, the normal Xbox 360 users still have to wait approx 2 months to get their hands on the final build of the game.

    This version seems to lack some certain texture and animation but it is not really the Beta build. Their are bound to be a lot of bugs and glitches since it isn’t properly tested yet. Right now, this version is floating everywhere around the internet(Don’t ask us where, we don’t support piracy). There is no update yet from EPIC games regarding this leak. Earlier rumors suggest that this leak might be of a early version of the game. Just like Crysis 2 Beta was leaked early which had the whole single player mode playable, Gears of War 3 suffered the similar fate.

    We will keep you updated once an official announcement is made from EPIC games. Stay tuned to us to find out more about this news.

    Cliff Bleszinski Gears Of War Veteran Cliff Bleszinski Leaves Epic Games

    He worked at Epic Games for 20 years and was considered the face of the company.

    I will miss the projects, the playtests, the debates, and most importantly, the people,

    Epic only hires the best of the best, and it has been a joy working with each and every one of you on a daily basis, whether you were hired weeks ago or decades ago. I have been fortunate enough to collaborate with a variety of disciplines, from code to art to marketing and PR — it’s been one big, rewarding learning experience. I’m confident that each project that is being built, whether at Epic, Chair, PCF, or Impossible will be top notch and will please gamers and critics alike.

    Bleszinski was last known to be working on Fortnite and Gears of War: Judgement.
