Metroid Prime Dev Looks For Art Director On Metroid Prime 4

Metroid Prime 4 developer Retro Studios is looking for an art director to work on Metroid Prime 4, which was sadly absent at this year’s E3.

What’s interesting about the job advertisement is that it specifies that the successful person will need to set an ‘artistic vision’ for the game. This means that the project is in its early stages, which comes as no surprise.

It’s no wonder that we didn’t see anything out of Metroid Prime 4 this E3, and it might be a long time yet before we get anything more than the lovely logo that sits at the top of this post.

It was announced this January that Nintendo had rebooted the project, wiping the slate clean and effectively starting from scratch.

As you can see, the job ad does go on to add that they will need to provide ‘further and direction to further that vision,’ and that the position is something of a go-between for the Art Team and Retro Studios’ parent company.
