Gears of War E-Day Job Listing Suggests PlayStation Release May Be In The Cards

Gears of War E-Day may be heading to PlayStation at some point, judging from a recent job listing related to the new entry in the series in development by The Coalition.

The job ad, which can be found here, is for a senior online client engineer whose responsibility will be to work on the new entry in the series, helping build the multiplayer and online experiences, including in-game economies and commerce, session management, player statistics, user-generated content, matchmaking, and game content management. Among the preferred qualifications, alongside experience with Unreal Engine and other object-oriented programming languages, is experience with Xbox Live, Steam and PlayStation Network, and other gaming platforms. While this could be a whole lot of nothing, it's definitely interesting to see the PlayStation Network mentioned alongside two online multiplayer platforms where the game is sure to release.
