You may remember that earlier this year Crystal Dynamics, the guys behind the Tomb Raider franchise, had to lay off around 30 employees due to Tomb Raider: Underworld selling less copies than expected. Well, it seems that the studio is only now looking for a helping hand but this time for developers who have the ability “to create and lead the multiplayer vision and design effort” of a AAA title.

Of course, the listing doesn’t actually state that its for a new Tomb Raider game but considering that is all that has come from Crystal Dynamics for the past several years, it’s probably safe to say we will be seeing a multiplayer enabled Tomb Raider from the studio at some point in the future.

A new job recruitment page recently went live on Konami’s website seeking developers for, what else, a continuation of the Metal Gear series.

According to Joystiq, that mess of Japanese characters displayed on the recruitment page states that Konami is looking for developers for console and mobile Metal Gear titles.

Since Metal Gear Touch is on it’s way, it’s safe to assume that this listing will help in the development of more games like that. But what about the console? Metal Gear Solid 5 anyone? Hell, maybe we’ll see a Metal Gear Wii title.
