Former Visceral, Sledgehammer Games co-founder and industry veteran of more than 20 years Michael Condrey has joined 2K Games as President of a newly-formed game development studio in Silicon Valley. Condrey is best known for his work on the likes of Dead Space and the Call of Duty series, heading up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Advanced Warfare, and WWII with Glen Schofield.

Condrey will build a new development team to work on an unannounced project, and his new studio will join 2K's stable of wholly owned development outfits including Mafia III dev Hangar 13, XCOM studio Firaxis Games and others.

"Great games come from the passion of a team driven by the pursuit of quality and the empowerment of an independent studio model," said Condrey. "2K’s studios have creative and technical autonomy, backed by a world-class infrastructure of support, and that offers the perfect recipe to build a new studio and craft experiences that will lead the next generation of gaming for fans everywhere."

Condrey's statement concludes: "Today’s announcement represents a rare and special opportunity for developers to help build and shape a new Silicon Valley studio from the ground up. I couldn’t be more excited, or thankful, to embark on this next step in my career."
