History

edit

The studio was founded by Wojciech Pazdur and Kamil Bilczyński, which previously worked on the Painkiller series at People Can Fly, and Robert Siejka, former president of 3D Magazine.[1] Originally, the company made some outsourcing contracts work for other studios, but then gathered enough IP to get funding from 1C Company for their 2009 debut project, NecroVisioN, and then its prequel, NecroVisioN: Lost Company. They were initially working on City Interactive's Alien Fear, but are no longer involved with the project.[2] They released Deadfall Adventures in November 2013.[3] Get Even was published by Bandai Namco Entertainment and released in June 2017.[4] They released Chernobylite in July 2021 (on PC and later on consoles). Their upcoming game, World War 3 is in development with publishers My.Games and The 4 Winds Entertainment.[5]
