Former ILM artist joins indie game studio Bonfire

Jaime Jasso, an artist that has worked at Industrial Light & Magic on giant movie franchises like Star Wars, has joined independent game studio Bonfire.

Rob Pardo started Bonfire Studios in 2016. Pardo was the lead designer on World of Warcraft at Blizzard Entertainment, where he worked for 17 years before leaving in 2014. His work helped make World of Warcraft a giant hit when it launched in 2004, and the massively multiplayer online role-playing game is still going strong in 2018 with the release of its seventh expansion, Battle for Azeroth. Bonfire is working on an unnamed new IP. We don’t know any specific details about the that game or any other projects.
