Clint Hocking Joins LucasArts

Posted August 9, 2010 by Ben Strauss

It seems former Splinter Cell designer Clint Hocking has finally found a new developer to call home. The industry veteran has now landed at LucasArts.

"We are pleased to announce that Clint Hocking has joined LucasArts as creative director on an unannounced project," a LucasArts rep told GameSpot.

Hocking was previously employed with Ubisoft earlier this summer. He worked for the company for nine years, serving as creative director on Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory and Far Cry 2. He stated that he resigned from the company in order to prevent himself from falling into bad habits or becoming complacent.

His arrival to the company comes as Lucasarts has been in a transitional period, seeing new executives joining the company. The most recent resignation was Force Unleashed executive producer Haden Blackman.
