Amazon Games to publish new online multiplayer action adventure game from Disruptive Games
Amazon Games has signed a publishing agreement with Disruptive Games for an unannounced online multiplayer action adventure game for multiple platforms based on a new intellectual property, the companies announced. Details on the title, which is built for both cooperative and competitive play, will be announced at a later date.
Disruptive Games previously co-developed titles such as Diablo II: Resurrected, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, and Godfall, and fully developed the PlayStation VR title Megalith.
“At Amazon Games, we’re focused on developing and publishing high-quality games that foster strong communities and keep people playing for years to come,” said Amazon Games vice president Christoph Hartmann in a press release. “We’re accomplishing this by creating our own IPs and selectively publishing external projects from stellar teams like Disruptive Games. The talented team at Disruptive Games is creating a fresh take on the multiplayer action adventure genre, with strong game design and rich world-building that we’re excited to help bring to players.”
Disruptive Games CEO and founder Eric Ellis added, “Together with Amazon Games, we are looking forward to building an online experience that kindles creativity and fosters positive social interactions. The Amazon Games team has embraced our vision for this game and the community it can build. Their enthusiasm for the project and dedication to creating great games made publishing with them a natural choice for us. With their world-class publishing support, already demonstrated by the wildly successful launches of New World and Lost Ark, we’re well on our way to bringing this project to players.”
