Nintendo-owned developer Monolithsoft (who made the Xenosaga and Baten Kaitos games before it was purchased) announced today that it's looking to hire new staff to work on its latest project -- a Wii U game. The studio is looking for programmers, planners, CG artists, 2D designers, effects designers, and more. In other words, it's looking to build its roster significantly for this project, which suggests a big one.

Of course, the last three games Monolith made for Nintendo were Xenoblade, Disaster: Day of Crisis, and Soma Bringer, so we're already pessimistic about the American localization prospects of this unreleased, undeveloped game.
