Overview
- A senior environment designer’s online resume, first reported May 25, 2026, describes work as “feature owner” of “open-world content” and cites tasks like blocking out main POIs and “forage design.”
- The studio has been publicly known to be developing a new, standalone IP after ending Dreams support in September 2023 and announcing layoffs and a refocus in October 2023.
- Mentions of POIs and forage design imply possible non-linear exploration and resource-gathering or crafting systems but do not prove final game features.
- Media Molecule and Sony have not officially announced details; descriptions come from a staff CV and job listings so the project’s scope could change during pre-production.
- If the resume reflects the final design, the game would mark a clear departure from Media Molecule’s sandbox creation tools and could shift development priorities and player expectations for the studio’s next title.
