Many tech companies are building their new campuses on disposable office space or other familiar territory, but Epic Games is trying something … different. Eurogamer reports that the Fortnite developer takes control of a hometown shopping center, Cary Towne Center, to transform it into the company’s next headquarters by 2024. The new project will mix and match offices with “recreation spaces” to handle the gaming giant’s “long-term growth”. ”
Epic said the project was still early and had no design work, but that it was looking at ways to share the land with the community. Development should begin in 2021, and the company will continue to work on its Crossroads Boulevard until the new headquarters are ready.
