The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

Grezzo has worked on a few different Zelda games in recent years, including the Switch remake of Link’s Awakening. The developer is now hiring for a new project that is described as “medieval” and “stylish”.

In a job listing for one programmer, it’s indicated that the game will use Unity, VisualStudio, git, redmine, and jenkins. The staffer would be involved from the ground floor with the planning team (so it’s more than just programming). Grezzo is looking for someone with experience in Unity with C#, someone who likes games, and can great things with the player mindset.

According to the latest NPD report which reports data from the United States, Switch was the best-selling hardware platform in units sold for the month of January. Not only that, but unit sales were the highest of any platform in a January month since the Wii in January 2010.

Switch lost out to the PlayStation 5 last month in terms of dollars sold. However, it should be pointed out that Sony’s console is significantly more expensive.
