Sumo Digital Working On "Successful Driving Series"

According to a job listing for a "vehicular handling and performance specialist", Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed developer Sumo Digital is beginning development on what they claim is "one of the most successful driving franchises of all time".

Here is the full listing for the position:

Sumo is looking for someone with great experience and a passion for tweaking the physics and performance characteristics of a wide range of vehicles in a successful driving franchise to join our team of Stig Fantasists in Sheffield.

 

A background of successful game design experience is important, as is an understanding of (and passion for) car handling, set-up and the console racing genre.

 

If you're auto-obsessed and want to contribute to one of the most successful driving franchises of all time, get in touch ASAP - we want to talk to you.

By the sounds of it, Sumo are working on a more realistic racer as opposed to the cartoon arcade-style of the Sonic titles.

Sumo Digital have also contributed to the Outrun, Driver and Split/Second franchises.
