The lead developer and designer of Civilization V, John Shafer, has joined the staff of Paradox Interactive.
The Best Man’s entry into Paradox Interactive was announced at the PDX CON 2017 conference, which is taking place these days in Stockholm.
Perhaps John Schafer will take part in the work on the new Surviving Mars strategy, presented on May 12 at PDX CON 2017. But this information has not been officially confirmed.
Surviving Mars is being developed by Paradox Interactive together with the studio Haemimont Games, which created the last three parts of the Tropico economic strategy. The game is scheduled to be released on PC and consoles in 2018.
Paradox Interactive is known as the creator of the global strategic series Europa Universalis, Hearts of Iron, Stellaris and other titles.
