North American esports organisation 100 Thieves has announced that it will produce its own video game.
To achieve this feat, the organisation has hired former Telltale Games CEO Pete Hawley as its Chief Product Officer. Hawley will aim to set up a development studio and handle the project.
According to a LinkedIn post by 100 Thieves President & COO John Robinson, the game, which is currently called ‘Project X,’ will be built with the organisation’s content creators and esports professionals. Robinson also announced the organisation will be hiring engineers, designers and artists for the project.
The COO also acknowledged that the task is the ‘biggest bet’ 100 Thieves has ever made as a company, and showed optimism toward the project despite the challenges of making a game.
Further details and plans for the game have not been disclosed. Robinson said in the LinkedIn post that 100T is announing the game “before we’ve written a line of code.”
