Dean "Rocket" Hall, creator of zombie game DayZ and climber of Mt. Everest, announced today that his new studio will be called RocketWerkz. He's also now hiring, seeking programmers, artists, and other professionals to join him at his Dunedin, New Zealand studio.

Hall announced his departure from DayZ developer Bohemia Interactive earlier this year, remarking at the time: "It's kind of like cooking in someone else's kitchen."

He's not sharing official details yet on RocketWerkz's first game, though he said in a previous interview that some of his new ideas have "similar DNA" to DayZ.
