BluePoint Games job listing hints at a 3rd-person melee-focused action title

Over the generations, BluePoint Games have gone from strength-to-strength, with the studio moving on from simple remasters in the early PS4 era to becoming one of the best teams to go to for an authentic-yet-ambitious remake project. Unfortunately, we’ve heard little from the studio ever since the release of Demon’s Souls back in 2020. That said, the team are continuing to work on something new, with a recent job listing indicating that it might be a 3rd-person melee-focused action title.

As discovered by the publication Tech4Gamers, BluePoint Games recently published a job listing for a Senior Combat Designer. While nothing crazy in and of itself, one of the job’s minimum requirements asks for “Solid understanding of mechanics for 3rd-person melee action experiences” – all-but-confirming that their upcoming project is a 3rd-person melee-focused title of sorts.

For the uninitiated, in the wake of Demon’s Souls release in 2020, BluePoint Games did start to tease their next project slightly. Though never officially announced, it was later reported that the team were working on a live-service God of War title before it was unfortunately cancelled.

Luckily, it appears as though this setback has not slowed the team down too much, with work already underway on whatever is next. Hopefully we learn about this mysterious project sooner rather than later.
