Neue Studios werden regelmäßig gegründet und einige davon auch von Industrie-Veteranen, wie zuletzt mit dem Entwickler Interior Night.

Das britische Studio wurde vor kurzem gegründet und besteht aus ehemaligen Entwicklern von Quantic Dreams, Sony und Slightly Mad Studios. Für ihren ersten Titel haben sie sofort einen Publishing-Deal mit Sega unterschrieben. Sie wollen eine komplett neue IP erschaffen, die sich an eine Zielgruppe für erwachsenes Fernsehen richtet. Deshalb steht auch die Narrative stark im Vordergrund, die die Charaktere und die Geschichte emotional an den Spieler binden soll. 

Viel mehr ist zum Titel noch nicht bekannt aber im Folgenden findet ihr die offizielle Bekanntgabe der Partnerschaft:
