Nordic Games has been founded in Vienna, Austria and will ”reboot” game IPs and their communities. It’s part of a ”successful network” of game studios.
”A group of games industry veterans from Sweden, have invested in the JoWooD brand, products and selected subsidiaries with the plan to reboot lots of games, IP’s and of course communities,” blurbed the official Nordic Games website.
”This is the beginning of a new era for all games and over the coming months, product development will start on a variety of well loved and respected brands and products.”
”The Nordic Games GmbH team members have been carefully selected for their enthusiasm and desire to make a successful publishing company, and their continued love and attention to the JoWooD brand and products.”
While they’re busy behind the scenes getting things ready they’ve decided for now it would be best to shut down a lot of the official websites and community forums.
”…new websites will be created and launched over the coming weeks, and rolled out in a scaled manner and as such we respectfully request your patience and understanding during this time of transition. All old forum threads and data files will be included in the re-launch.”
”The aim of Nordic Games is to treat the games and customers with care and attention, so let’s keep one eye on the past but also one eye to the future.” Are you pleased to see JoWood’s catalogue of franchises saved from oblivion, videogamer?
