It looks like UK based developer Splash Damage is bringing in some new team members from outside the original group to help out with their future projects. The developer just announced that it has brought in former Ubisoft member Olivier Leonardi as its Art Director; he previously worked on Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Prince of Persia. Also brought into the Splash Damage fold is former Criterion Games member Chris Sweetman as Audio Director, former BioWare member Tim Appleby as Lead Character Artist and producer Chris Dawson who has worked on games like Driver, Evil Genius and Test Drive.

Splash Damage's has worked mostly with id Software for most of its life, first on the free Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory game (still a popular game online) and more recently on the multiplayer shooter Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. It recenty signed a deal with Bethesda Softworks to work on a new original unnamed action game.
