Jade Raymond Joins PlayStation With New Studio Haven

During Stadia's massive purge and shift from first-party development to a third-party service Jade Raymond, an icon within the industry, was let go. Now the former Stadia developer has joined Sony with the newly Haven Studios.

Jade Raymond detailed this new studio in a recent post that Haven is working on a new unannounced IP.

And so today I’m announcing Haven, an independent studio where many of the talented game developers I have worked with for years (and love dearly!) are coming together to do what we are most passionate about. It’s time for us to refocus on GAMES in a place where we can practice our crafts without any barriers or impediments. We want to create worlds where players can escape, have fun, express themselves, and find community. We want to pour our passion into a project. We want to make something wondrous for people to experience. Because we believe in the power of games to bring joy to people’s lives. And Sony does, too. Their commitment to excellence is unmatched. It’s why I couldn’t be happier for their backing and support.

Considering Raymond's large history of making games and incredible IPs like Assassin's Creed and Watch_Dogs it'll be exciting to see what the studio has in store.
