"As part of our strategy we have already successfully built an expanded all new headquarters in Frisco, Texas," said Gearbox president Randy Pitchford. "We now look ahead to another key and exciting step which is our commitment towards our all-new Gearbox Studio Quebec where we strive to team up with some incredible talent in the world of video game development outside of Texas to help us build fun and exciting video games within our tent-pole brands."

Gearbox has revealed that the two co-studio heads are Pierre-Andre Dery and Sebastian Caisse. Dery will also serve as the studio's creative director and Caisse as the director of operations.

Dery previously worked as an art director at Activision, working on titles such as the Skylanders series and The Amazing Spider-Man 2. He was also the COO and executive producer at visual services studio Volta.
