Homeworld Team Adds Ex-BioWare Producer
Relic reveals that Ben Smedstad, formerly the producer of Baldur's Gate II, has joined the team developing the next Homeworld game.
Relic Entertainment announced today that Ben Smedstad recently took a position on one of the company's two development teams. Smedstad left his position as producer of Baldur's Gate II at BioWare almost two months ago. At Relic, he will work on a sequel to Homeworld, which Sierra Studios will publish. The other team at Relic is working on Sigma, which was unveiled at last May's E3.
