Redfall co-director Harvey Smith has reflected on his 16 years at Arkane, “a small company created in 1999 by ‘six French guys in a room'”.
His lengthy thread on X, formerly Twitter, follows yesterday’s news Microsoft is closing a number of Bethesda studios, including Arkane Austin following development of the vampire co-op shooter Redfall.
Smith was at Arkane for 16 years after becoming co-creative director alongside company president Raphaël Colantonio in 2008. He worked on the likes of Dishonored and Prey. Colantonio left the company in 2017 and founded WolfEye Studios.
