Black Tusk Xbox One project hiring lead writer, project promises to be cinematic

Xbox One exclusive developer Black Tusk Studios is hiring for a lead writer, and from the job descriptor the project appears to be quite cinematic.

It follows our report on the mysterious Black Tusk IP. Hit the link to see what we know so far.

The fresh insight comes from a Black Tusk job listing, which clearly states that the game will start a franchise.

It begins, "We are looking for a seasoned storyteller who can help us bring Microsoft’s next big IP to life. This individual will help us develop the characters, story arc, emotional tone, pacing, dialogue, and flavor of a story that will shape the spirit of this new franchise."

Among the responsibilities, Black Tusk calls for someone who can, "Act as a champion of story, characters, and emotional engagement across the game and game team," and ,"create a cast of distinctive, engaging, and imperfect characters that players love (or love to hate)."

Ultimately, the applicant will, "Define a compelling story that takes the player on a hero’s journey, with a keen eye to story structure and pacing."
