God of War mastermind Sony Computer Entertainment Santa Monica is on the hunt for fresh blood to aid in the development of a new project, which sounds about as far removed from Kratos’ hack n’ slash-based antics as you can get.
Specifically, the celebrated studio is looking to take on a senior combat designer and level designer, with the former required to have experience "working with, developing or designing for a 1st and/or 3rd person shooter.”
Meanwhile, the company also listed experience in the field of vehicular combat as “a plus.” As for the level design, the dev is looking for "experience in designing or contributing to the development of an open world game is a plus."
UK publication PSM3 recently reported that the firm is in the process of working on a fourth instalment in the God of War franchise, which will supposedly be on shelves in September 2012.
We’ll keep you posted.
