Following the closure of Homefront developer Kaos Studios earlier this month, studio creative director GM David Votypka has found a new home at Ubisoft Red Storm. According to Votypka's LinkedIn profile, he is now serving as Red Storm's senior creative director. The studio, perhaps best known as the creator of both the Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six series, is currently at work on Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, due out next year. Both Kaos Studios and Juiced developer Digital Warrington were shuttered by owner THQ earlier this month as part of a "strategic realignment" to focus on its marquee franchises. Its Homefront game has sold an estimated one million copies since its release earlier this year. THQ held a job fair in the UK last week for those affected by the closure.
