Kosenski comes to 38 Studios from Electronic Arts Los Angeles, where he held the position of Senior Development Director across multiple award-winning franchises. He was a driving force behind the successful development of the world-renown Medal of Honor franchise and most recently completed Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars on Xbox 360, the most successful Command and Conquer launch ever. Kosenski also oversaw the technical and creative innovations that brought EALA's Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth 2 into the console market. Previously Michael worked at VR1/Jaleco, where he served as a producer on Nightcaster and as both producer and lead engineer on the massively multiplayer online title Nomads of Klanth (hosted on AOL's Games Channel).
"Joining the team of Close, Schilling, Salvatore, and McFarlane is a very exciting, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said Kosenski. "Being chosen to lead the development of such a talented team on such an amazing IP is an honor. I look forward to helping 38 Studios continue to excel in both product development and in building an incredible team culture. I'm proud and excited to be a part of a company with such a great future."
