One of the biggest names in video games has chosen New Orleans for his new headquarters as the gaming design industry is really starting to flourish in the region.
Staff of Possibility Space is already unpacking in the Pan-Am building on Poydras.
The studio is drawing from talent from around the world remotely and is part of an empire belonging to gaming giant, Jeff Strain, who has founded and sold two video-game companies.
Strain expects to also pull from a local, growing base of talent because of all of the recent STEM education investment in the city. He also hopes that the industry heavyweights from around the world he is working with can serve as mentors.
Possibility Space is hoping to fill 75 positions over the next few years that pay at least $100,000.
A handful of gaming companies have already put down their roots in the state, three in New Orleans alone.
