Role-playing game developer InXile Entertainment is perhaps best known for Wasteland 2 and Wasteland 3, which helped to inject new life into the CRPG genre as other series focused more on action elements.

Twitter user Klobrille pointed out that InXile is currently looking for an art director on a "next-generation role-playing game" that will use Unreal Engine. A separate listing for a gameplay designer explicitly mentions first-person perspective, rather than the isometric and zoomed-out views we've seen in many of the studio's other games.
An important position is available for what I think will be a special game.
