Amazon

The largest American retailer Amazon, which recently introduced the “game-charged” home set-top box Fire TV, catches game development specialists in its networks.

Clint Hocking, whose track record includes Ubisoft, LucasArts and Valve, has moved to Amazon Game Studios, the company’s internal studio. In particular, Clint had a hand in Splinter Cell. Kim Swift, a former Valve employee and Portal game designer, also found a new job.

Admittedly, Amazon has approached the issue of game development more seriously than ever. In February, he bought the studio Double Helix, the developer of Killer Instinct. At the moment, Amazon Game Studios has released the Air Patriots and Simplz: Zoo projects, as well as the Sev Zero shooter. And the company also sells a game controller to the Fire TV system.
