“Today, I am pleased to announce that Haven Studios has officially joined PlayStation Studios! Jade Raymond brings with her an influential passion for creating games and experience rich from her achievements in the industry. Many of the Haven Studios team consists of a team that has worked on some of the biggest, most popular games and franchises.
We started working with Jade and her team in early 2021, when we were on the verge of announcing the founding of Haven Studios. From its first steps, we were inspired by Haven’s vision of creating a modern multiplayer experience that brings players together in positive and meaningful ways. We were confident in their creative and technical expertise to carry out such an ambitious project and were excited to invest in a new, original IP development journey for PlayStation.
Last year we had the privilege of working closely with Haven and were impressed with the growth and progress of the studio. Now, almost on the anniversary of our formalization of our partnership, it is especially exciting to officially invite them to the PlayStation family. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for Haven Studios.
