at the helm of a new development studio, Robotoki.

Bowling spoke to GameInformer about his new studio, and this is what he had to say.

Originally posted by another user

Robotoki wants to focus on creating a universe first, experiences second, and game mechanics last so
that I can produce experiences that transcend platforms and genres and allow our players to connect to our
world, their character, and gameplay via any medium.

Our focus is creating an experience that is no longer strictly single player, strictly
co-op, or strictly multiplayer, but adapting the strengths of each of these into a unique experience
that is fueled by the actions and contributions in each.

As one can see, it seems that Bowling is going to be really devoted and committed to Robotoki.
The studio expects to reveal their first project later this year, and will be available on consoles, PC, and mobile.

So has Bowling's track record at Infinity Ward left you disappointed?
Or do you have high hopes for the new studio?

I thought or kind of hoped he would go to Respawn. It will be interesting to see what he's working on though.

I think that is a bold move, leaving Infinity Ward and starting a new studio, just like starting any business. Good luck to him and his team, hopefully we will be able to see what they are working on in the future :p

Yeah that was what my first guess was going to be :p And I agree as well Smile

I wonder what type of game the studio will be creating Smile

Can you give some insight as to why you think this? Smile

I don't think its fair to assume that without
at least giving some reasoning Smile
