New Studio in Hunt Valley

Let's all welcome ZeniMax Online to our growing community of studios in Hunt Valley.

Being a booster for the Hunt Valley area, I have to re-post, verbatim, a part of Matt Firor's recent interview about the new studio:


Name three great things about Hunt Valley, MD

First and foremost is location. It's close to Baltimore and Washington, yet is in an easily-affordable area close to Maryland horse country and rural Pennsylvania. You can hike in Loch Raven Reservoir in the afternoon and drive downtown to see a show at the trendy 8×10 club in Federal Hill, Baltimore in the evening. Second is the game development and sci-fi/fantasy history of the area. Microprose was founded in Hunt Valley and many of the studios in the area are offshoots from that major early industry player. The Balticon Science Fiction and Fantasy convention is an annual rite for many Baltimore-area game developers, which has been held in Hunt Valley for years - the first Balticon was way back in 1967. Third, it’s the future home of ZeniMax Online Studios!
