Bungie veteran Joseph Staten announced today that he has joined Netflix Games<\/a> as its creative director, making him the latest of the games industry figures to join the brand. He added that, as creative director, he\u2019s working on \u201ca brand-new AAA multiplatform game and original IP\u201d for the studio.<\/p>\n
Staten is one of the major figures at Bungie, having worked as a writer on the first three Halo titles and the original Destiny. He later served as creative director at Xbox Game Studios and joined 343 Industries as head of creative on Halo Infinite. He departed that studio in January and announced a few weeks ago<\/a> that he was leaving Microsoft entirely.<\/p>\n
He said of the move on Twitter<\/a>, \u201cIn my work life, there\u2019s nothing I love more than collaborating with others to build worlds filled with iconic characters, deep mysteries and endless adventures.\u201d<\/p>\n
Netflix recently announced several new games coming to its platform, including new titles from Ubisoft and Super Evil Megacorp. At the time, it said it had over a dozen games in the works at its in-house studios and planned to launch 40 games before the end of 2023.<\/p>\n

Staten\u2019s new project appears to be different from any of Netflix\u2019s announced projects, as he states it\u2019s \u201cmultiplatform.\u201d Most of Netflix Games\u2019 titles up to now have been mobile titles, though the company alluded to wanting to go bigger during last month\u2019s announcement. Having a creative director like Staten certainly implies bigger ambitions.<\/p>\n
