Ex-Bungie boss' new company ProbablyMonsters now has 100 employees

ProbablyMonsters, the new company from the former head of Halo developer Bungie Harold Ryan (pictured), now employs 100 members of staff.

The firm revealed that it had hired 100 people six months after it was announced in October 2019. The firm was set up in 2016, but only revealed at that point.

ProbablyMonsters is a company designed to build games studios and so far has helped form two developers named Cauldron Studios and Firewalk Studios. The former is working on a narrative-based triple-A game, while the latter has a multiplayer title in development. 

“By offering a new model for game creation, our ProbablyMonsters studios and platform team are attracting industry-leading talent that is highly skilled and creatively diverse,” Ryan said.

“Our growth testifies to the value of empowering the development teams in our ProbablyMonsters studios to do what they love in an environment that puts people, culture, and creativity first.”
