PlayStation🐓 has set up a 'preservation team', according to a new employee.
Yesterday, Garrett Fredley announced that he has now joined PlayStation as a senior build engineer. Fredley previously ꦯworked as a build engineer for mobile game developer Kabam. In a tweet sharing the n𓃲ews, Fredley also revealed that he's one of the first to join PlayStation's new game preservation team.
"Today is my first day a💦s a Senior Build Engineer at PlayStation, working as one of their initial hire💃s for the newly created Preservation team!" said Fredley.
Today is my first day as a Senior Build Engineer at @PlayStation, working as one of their initial hires for the newly created Preservation team!Game Preservation was my first career passion, so I'm ecstatic that I get to go back to those roots 😊
He went into slightly more detail in a post ﷽shared by user Smitch on , stating that the game preservation team aims to "ensure our industry's history isn't forgotten". He also thanked𒁏 PlayStation's global quality assurance manager Mike Bishop for adding him to the team.
"Game Preservation was my first career passion. It was my first foray into the world of Software Engineering / Dev Ops, and into a world that so many are unaware ♒of. I was just a novice back then, contributing any way I could regardless of my inexperience. Now, I'm back to it, no longer the novice I once was."
"Thank you Mike ๊Bishop and the team for bringing me on board for this adventure. Let's go and ensure our industry's history isn't forgotten!"
With no official announcement, we don't yet know exactly what the role of the game preservation team is, but it could involve bringing more of the brand's back catalogue to its newer consoles. It could be linked to the PlayStation Plus rebrand, which is putting more focus on PlayStation's past with a library of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:over 700 games, including PS1, PS2, and PSP classics. The new team might be working to bring these older games to theౠ subscription service.
The new PlayStation Plus launches in June. We've rounded up all of the PS Plus Premium and Extra games confirmed so far.
Originally from Ireland, I moved to the UK in 2014 to pursue a Games Journalism and PR degree at Staffordshire University. Following that, I've freelanced for GamesMaster, Games TM, Official PlayStation Magazine and, more recently, Play and GamesRadar+. My love of gaming sprang from successfully defeating that first Goomba in Super Mario Bros on the NES. These days, PlayStation is my jam. When not gaming or writing, I can usually be found scouring the internet for anything Tomb Raider related t🍎o add to my out of control memorabilia ෴collection.
