Staten tweeted that he will serve as Creative Director on the unannounced project, and said that the game will be multi-platform and have an original franchise.
Previously, Staten had worked with Microsoft’s publishing division and was brought in to try and salvage the lacklustre Halo Infinite. Before that, Staten was with Bungie and served as cinematics director and writer for the original Halo trilogy. He even helped Bungie with some scribe work for Destiny but left the studio before the game was released.
