Capcom Vancouver hiring for two “open-world action” titles, zombies need not apply

no zombies allowed

Capcom Vancouver is hiring a UI software engineer for “two unannounced projects.” The description, posted on LinkedIn, notes the game’s are “open-world action” titles. Thought at first to be a recruitment post for Dead Rising 3, the posting goes on to read that “for our next project we’ve been given the opportunity to create Capcom’s next big game.” The firm said “no zombies” allowed So, no does the “no zombies” bit nix Dead Rising 3 as one of the projects? Or does the firm wish to remain a zombie-free zone? You decide, however, Dead Rising 3 could one of these projects, or a third, unmentioned project. Thanks, OXM.
