In a new post on its Twitter/X account, French Bread announced that it is hiring a new battle planner. The developers have worked on both the Under Night In-Birth series and Melty Blood.
A battle planner is a job designed for those who are able to plan and fine-tune characters within a fighting game. Further, they will need to conduct actual matches and test out the balancing of characters. While programming experience isn’t a necessity, the potential hire must ideally have some grasp of it. While the reason French Bread need a battle planner is currently unknown, it’s possible that it could be for a new fighting game project that is in development.
The most recent fighting game from French Bread, Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes, is available now for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam worldwide. Lastly, the Steam page describes it as follows:
Sys:Celes sinks towards ruination.
For the Immortalize, the collapse of all that is, looms on the horizon.
The curtain rises on the final chapter of the Hollow Night. Catastrophe beckons…
