A group of Forza Horizon developers have quit Xbox's Playground Games to form a new studio, Maverick Games.

The fresh team is led by Playground veteran and Forza Horizon 5 creative director Mike Brown, with work already underway on the a new "premium open-world game for consoles and PC".

Brown is one of six former Playground staff at Maverick. Tom Butcher, a lead producer at Playground, serves as the studio's executive producer. Matt Craven, a technical director at Playground, is its chief technical officer. Gareth Harwood, a technical art director, is Maverick's content director. Fraser Stachan, an audio director at Playground, holds the same post - as does Ben Penrose, a former Playground art director.
