EALA hiring for “unannounced third-person shooter”
According to an EALA job posting, the studio is staffing up for an “unannounced third-person shooter game with strong multiplayer focus.”
The role needing to be filled is that of a senior multiplayer designer, who will create “memorable environments and gameplay elements to satisfy an increasing sophisticated and widening games audience.”
It says there that the job will include work on DICE’s destruction-based Frostbite 2 engine, the central code for the upcoming Battlefield 3.
There’s no clue as to the identity of the project.
As Gamespot notes, EA boss John Riccitiello said in February that EA is working on a “very exciting” FPS that the company is “not announcing yet.”
EALA is already confirmed to be working on the next Medal of Honor title.

@2 That was my thought too. What the hell?
It seems like VG247 is mixing up the names a bit. The link that says EALA is working on another MoH goes to an article saying that Danger Close is working on another MoH.
Maybe it’s just a cosmetic label, and it’s still EALA internally?

I think Danger Close are just a part of EALA, one team in a larger studio.
