The information is still, however, unofficial. Sony has not made any announcements. Data on the launch of a new division was found by the GamingBolt publication in the description of one of the latest PlayStation Global vacancies.
Sony is looking for a senior producer for an internal gaming team that will work in conjunction with PlayStation Studios Visual Arts (the latter specializes in animation, motion capture, cinematics creation, art preparation and object scanning).
For reference, it was Visual Arts (then it was called Sonya’s Visual Arts Service Group) that was responsible for the development of The Last of Us Remake for the first time, and then she was “demoted”. Naughty Dog took over the remake itself, and the role of Visual Arts was limited to support.
The job description also states that the team will create an unannounced, but very “noticeable project”. The development will be carried out with the participation of Naughty Dog. Sony already has a “vision of the project“ and ”plans for its release.”
