Forums - Gaming - Rumor: Eidos Montreal creating 350 jobs by 2015

http://www.strategyinformer.com/news/14249/rumor-eidos-montreal-creating-350-jobs-by-2015

Canadian news site La Presse Affaires is claiming Eidos Montreal will increase its staff to 350 people by 2015, with 100 of them by next year. If this is true, Eidos would be the third largest developer in the Quebec city, behind Ubisoft Montreal and EA Montreal.

The rumor steams from Square-Enix's negotiations of a deal with the province of Quebec, as well as British Columbia and Ontario. However, the Japanese corporation has not confirmed anything as of yet.

Square-Enix purchased Eidos a few years ago to expand its catalog and deal with the shrinking profitability of the Japanese videogame market.

Looking like Montreal is getting bigger as a gaming market, I sure have a lot to look forward to in the upcoming years, moving to Montreal from sweden in 2years so this will be good and may get other's attention to expand even further in Montreal



By 2051 they're going to be pretentious old men playing at running the world.

As long as they don't dumb shit down from here and iterate upon it in the opposite of dumbing down, Deus Ex will finally get a game that actually beats the first one.
