It looks like Microsoft is preparing to go full steam ahead with development on the successor to the Xbox 360 as three job listings appear on Linkedin.
Microsoft is looking for a 'hardware verification engineer', a 'VLSI graphics architect' and a 'VLSI performance architect' for work on what sounds like the next-gen console.
"Come join a dynamic engineering team and play a key role in the development and verification of the Xbox and future platforms," it says in the engineer listing.
"We are looking for an experienced Senior Hardware Design/Verification Engineer. You will be responsible for the design verification and qualification of the Xbox console at the component, motherboard, and system levels. You will lead test strategy discussions, develop test methodologies & plans and project-manage qualification cycles," it adds.
On the graphics architect page, is says: "The Xbox Console Architecture team is hiring for a Graphics hardware architect position. The team is responsible for defining and delivering next generation console architectures from conception through implementation."
It's exciting to think about, sure, but this would also seem to suggest that development is still in the earliest of stages - almost six years after the 2005 release of the 360.
So when they predicted this would be a longer console cycle than usual they weren't kidding.
ゲーム開発者向けのSNSサイトであるLinkedInで、
Microsoftが次世代ハードの設計に携わる開発者やエンジニアを募集していることが分かりました。
募集が行われている職種は、グラフィックハードウェア設計者、
シニア設計者及びパフォーマンスエンジニア、
シニアハードウェア設計検証エンジニアなどで、
概要文には“次世代コンソールの設計”に関わることになるとはっきりと記載が。
一体どの段階まで準備が進められているのか、
これらの求人情報から読み取ることは難しいですが、
現行のXbox 360発売から既に6年近くが経過しているだけに気になる話題だと言えます。 |
