The candidate will be involved in the creation of gameplay related features for an unannounced high-end console title, bringing areas such as the camera system and character development to a new level." Visceral Games, Senior Level Designer - Dead Space 2 "Over the years our talent and experience grew, as the studio's focus shifted away from EA owned IP and towards licensed action titles like James Bond, Lord of the Rings, The Simpsons and more, we learned a great deal about what makes a good action game, and the desire to turn our own ideas in to intense action games grew. With games like Dead Space, Dead Space Extraction and Dante’s Inferno, we feel Visceral Games is a return to an older identity and a realization of our future. Seeking a highly motivated Senior Level Designer for Dead Space 2 on Xbox360 and PS3. This is a major opportunity to contribute creatively to an exciting new franchise."
