The new studio in Cologne will be led by the former Factor 5 team, which includes Julian Eggebrecht, the Director of Epic Games online technology and Achim Moller, who will be the director of the Cologne Studio. Eggebrecht and Moller joined Epic Games earlier this year. They have also led Factor 5 in 2009. The duo have also worked together as technology partners for barons of the gaming industry like Nintendo and Sony.
At a recent press release, Eggebrecht said “At the core of Epic’s success are highly-skilled and passionate individuals.” He also added that “Germany is a nation at the forefront of technology and we look forward to extending our local presence as we fill newly created roles and hire exceptional talent.”
It is expected that the Epic Games studio in Cologne will feature a streaming platform although it is yet to be confirmed by spokespeople as to what the company would exactly be working on. Sources, however, suggest to not expect the studio to produce any new games in the near future.
