Quantic Dream is looking for Direct3D, 11 and 12 engineers

Maybe? I mean it'd be nice, their games already look great on PS4. Probably tooling their engine for next gen too, though.

Makes sense. The current contract with Sony is over, and Sony might take some time to give them a new one considering the shithole the studio is to its employees.
It could be anything. They could be going multiplatform for sure. Detroit was their last game under contract with Sony correct? They've developed for other platforms before so this isn't surprising I guess.

Looking forward to QD games hopefully being available on more platforms than they currently are.
No his games are amazing and I hope Sony pays up . Loved heavy rain and now I m loving Detroit .master class in the genre.
It literally says "you will participate in the development and optimization of the PC engine of our studio", so of course it requires DX11/12 knowledge. This does not mean their next game is going to be released on PC/XboxOne, though. Most studios (even Sony studios) have PC-version of their engines for quick iteration and tools support...
Hard to imagine MS would allow Sony access to part of their secret sauce, especially with DirectX12 potentially playing a huge role with things like ray tracing.

Direct libraries are exclusive to PC and Xbox tho, i don't think PS will ever support Direct, since this is a MS tool.
This position is for their 3d engine .
Cause it's long term position and not project duration position .
I m sure this is when studios start getting their engines ready for next gen before they experiment with new games .
Most probably quanitc dream will be in ps5 reveal with their new engine demonstration .like they have been there for ps3 reveal and PS4 reveal .

Unlikely. Why pay MS for the DX license when you can just use Vulkan or make your own API like Sony has always done.
I remember them having a 3 game exclusive contract with Sony or something years back, Detroit was the 3rd one
Allegedly.
They are probably still brainstorming ideas for their next game, no reason Sony can't pick their next project if it looks like a nice fit for them. No matter, after Detroit, I'm pretty excited for their next project.
I was expecting Sony's response to Quantic Dream's issues to be plugging their ears until Detroit was out and then ending their relationship before Quantic got buried in lawsuits and possible mass departures, so I wouldn't be surprised if that relationship is over.
I just don't understand the hate for the studio.detroit is fucking amazing .and again this is them getting their 3d engine ready for next gen .has nothing to do with a game
The part that says "Sony may" is not a statement of fact but an allegation/assertion/assumption. Rest could be construed as fact, though.
I don't remember which interview it was but Cage (or De Fondaumière ?) said that there never was such thing as a 3 games contract. They signed every project with Sony one after another.

So much poor reasoning and misinformation in this thread... but it's a QD thread so I'm not surprised.
ERA's toxicity towards the studio is shamefull.

Right, which is why the studios that work for PS4 (exclusively or not) have both a DX and an PS4/Gnm renderer, so they can run it both on PC(or/and XboxOne) and in PS4, regardless of if they ship in PC or not
And it doesn't feel likely this would have been on MS's shopping list either for the same reason. The studio size is right, but on other counts it doesn't feel very attractive. It's not anglophone, there's this controversy, it's got a strong auteur director and so on.
