Endrant Studios opens doors
Endrant Studios has announced the opening of its doors and its first project - a co-development partnership with Raven Software and Activision Blizzard on id Software's upcoming Wolfenstein game.
"Our goal is to make exciting, fun and accessible games that translate to the masses," said Ben Smedstad, creative director and co-owner. "Our backgrounds and experience enable us to be more creative, more focused and deliver a higher quality game no matter what the platform."
Endrant Studios is based outside London in Sevenoaks, Kent.
"The pool of talent in the UK was the driving force behind us choosing to set up in England," said Neil Postlethwaite, managing director and co-owner. "Although the incentives in other countries were tempting, the experience and talent available in the UK is what kept us here."
On Wolfenstein, Endrant will be focusing primarily on multi-player development.
