Sony opening Project Morpheus studio in North West

PlayStation is setting up a development studio in North West England dedicated to make games for its Project Morpheus VR headset.

As spotted by Eurogamer, Sony has been advertising for experienced developers on its job site for a ‘North West Studio’ to work exclusively on content for Project Morpheus.

Eurogamer also has reliable information saying that the team will feature staff from DriveClub studio Evolution, and that the new developer will be in Manchester.

In March of this year, Sony confirmed that there would be lay-offs at Evolution Studio and that it would be "looking to relocate team members through the studios".
