Ex-Apex Legends Director Forms New Studio Wildlight Entertainment

A new game studio called Wildlight Entertainment has been formed. While the name may not immediately grab your attention, some of the people at the studio might! It's led by former Apex Legends game director, Chad Grenier - also known for his work on the Titanfall series and his past development history with Call of Duty's Modern Warfare series.

Grenier's new studio will be comprised of a team made up of ex-CoD, Titanfall and Apex Legends team members. Some of the individuals at this studio, like designer Mohammad Alvai, were also reportedly attached to EA's cancelled single-player game which recently made headlines.

As you can see in the article above, EA's unannounced project was meant to be a new game set within the universe of Apex Legends and the Titanfall series. A Bloomberg report earlier this month suggested the team would be reassigned to new roles within the company, but others have clearly jumped ship since then.

Wildlight appears to have recruited an impressive lineup of talent so far - as we mentioned earlier, a lot of team members have worked on some great series' such as CoD, Battlefield, Borderlands, Apex Legends and Titanfall.

According to the official website, Wildlight Entertainment is a "fully-funded entertainment studio" focused on creating "big, bold, original gaming universes of epic quality and scale". It's apparently already got a new IP in the works that it has been working on for some time, and the team is "beyond excited" for what's to come.
