Sony Worldwide Studios VP Michael Denny spoke to GamesIndustry regarding their purchase of Evolution Studios. In addition to this, he also spoke about a sequel to MotorStorm which the company plans on releasing some time next year.

In the interview, Denny said that both founders of the gaming company Martin Kenwright and Ian Hetherington have decided to leave the business. However, Mick Hocking will still continue as the managing director of the new subsidiary. These moves were done to further strengthen their new holding:

We want to protect and enhance our investment in Evolution Studios and Bigbig, and have no plans to reduce the overall number of staff in either studio. We believe that becoming part of the worldwide studios group within Sony will offer improved career opportunities for talented people.

Regarding the sequel to the hit PS3 title, Denny said “MotorStorm as a brand and as a network-enabled game will go from strength to strength. We’re looking to follow up with a new Blu-ray disc release next year for MotorStorm“.
