As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming experience under my belt, this news has me absolutely thrilled! A former Call of Duty: Black Ops Executive Producer joining forces with Bungie and Sony to work on a brand-new science-fantasy action game? Sign me up!

Previously, the Executive Producer of Call of Duty: Black Ops is now collaborating with Bungie at Sony, developing a completely fresh title exclusively for PlayStation.

As reported by GirlGlitcher, it’s been announced that Jason Blundell has stepped into the position of leading a fresh Sony studio. This innovative team is collaborating with Bungie, creators of Destiny 2, on a new action game. The captivating plot unfolds in an entirely original science-fantasy universe.

According to the statement, Bungie had begun developing this particular game prior to Blundell’s joining the team, and presumably even before Sony made any changes to their studio structure. Additionally, it is emphasized that this game does not belong to either the Destiny or Marathon series.

For approximately ten years, Jason Blundell worked at Treyarch, contributing to the development of Call of Duty. He departed from Treyarch in 2020 and established his own studio, named Deviation Games. Prior to its closure in March 2024 following a series of layoffs, Deviation was working on a new project for PlayStation Studios. However, Blundell had already left the studio by September 2022.

It’s not the first instance since Blundell parted ways with Deviation that rumors about his association with Sony have surfaced. In May, there were reports indicating Sony had established a fresh studio, staffed by ex-Deviation personnel, to work on an undisclosed project. Although it hasn’t been verified if Blundell is involved with this new studio, the evidence suggests that he likely is.

We’ve tried contacting both Sony and Bungie about these allegations. If they respond, we’ll make sure to update this article with their comments.
