“I’m happy to join Chimera and install my experience as a node for their designers and bond the team ties even more,” said Bombera.
“We’re on the same page, sharing the sense for quality of games that players can enjoy for years. I’m keen to support their increased team and to keep the creative processes efficient.”
Chimera managing and operations director Christian Kluckner added: “Having Sebastian on board now is a key hire for us as our projects are growing substantially in terms of scope and production value.
“With his strong profile and his experience in leading and mentoring creatives he will fortify Chimera’s structure and help us to coach and develop our talents on the team.”
