“I can get back into this business”: Gears of War father Cliff Blesinski wants to make games again

Game industry veteran Cliff Blesinski, known to many modern players as the person who stood at the origins of the famous franchise Gears of war, in 2018 he decided to completely change his occupation, leaving his career as a developer and game designer far behind. The reason for such radical decisions was the loud failure of shooters LawBreakers and Radical heights and the subsequent closure of the studio Boss Key Productions

Later, the developer went on a kind of spiritual journey and began to try himself in various fields, including producing theater productions, working in the restaurant business and even writing an autobiographical novel… And it is on the pages of the latter the eminent figure made an unexpected confession – today he is not at all opposed to returning to the gaming industry, although he somewhat changed the vector of his movement

Inspired by similar thoughts Blezinski several things at once, to a greater extent – the deafening success of budget indie developments, like Among Us and Fall guys… They clearly demonstrated that the audience of gamers can be approached without having to spend millions of dollars.

“I have some interesting ideas, and then we’ll see. Lately I have literally fallen in love with various games of a modest scale, and the success of Fall Guys and Among Us has inspired my heart with the hope that it is possible to exist in the industry without crazy AAA projects , the creation of which requires crazy schedules, the destruction of my own psyche and budgets, estimated at hundreds of millions of dollars. It is these games that make me think that I can return to this business, albeit in small, neat steps, “- says Cliff Blesinski.

It is important to note that this is not the first time Blesinski has openly expressed a desire to re-enter the world of interactive entertainment. So, last year the developer came up with an explosive concept for a new project
