A job listing for a Graphics Engine Programmer has revealed that Sony has opened a virtual reality focussed first party development studio, called North West Studio, based (as the name implies) in the North West of England.
The listing, which was spotted by All Games Beta, describes the job as offering "an exciting and rare opportunity to join an ambitious new studio to create original games exclusively for Project Morpheus, PlayStation's VR platform".
Expect to hear a lot more about Sony's plans for virtual reality at E3 next month.
