Sony acquires Haven Studios, led by Jade Raymond

Jade Raymond’s Haven Studios has been acquired by Sony PlayStation, the pair have today announced.

Haven Studios was started up just one year ago, as part of a partnership that meant the new studio would be designing a piece of new IP for the PlayStation platform.

“I’m delighted to announce that Haven Studios is officially joining PlayStation Studios,” Sony’s Hermen Hulst today wrote in a new blog post.

“Jade Raymond brings a wealth of experience from her industry achievements and an infectious passion for creating games, and the leadership team at Haven is an equally impressive group of industry veterans who have collaborated on some of the biggest and most beloved games and franchises that many of us still enjoy today,” Hulst continued.

“Our first new IP for PlayStation is on track to deliver a AAA multiplayer experience with a vision to build a systemic and evolving world focused on freedom, thrill, and playfulness that will keep players entertained and engaged for years,” added Raymond.

Raymond also said that Haven is looking forward to collaborate with Sony first-party studios including Naughty Dog, Guerrilla and more.

“We’re excited to learn from these world-class studios, as well as the exceptional central creative, technology and marketing teams whose expertise will enable us to deliver even better games to players,” she said.

It’s unknown as to what Haven Studios is working on, but we’ll keep you posted as we learn more.
