PlayStation continues to work to expand the number of studies under its threshold. In this way, today the acquisition of Savage Game Studios was revealed. What attracts attention here is that This team is focused on mobile games , and is the first member of a new division aimed at this market.
Through a statement in his official blog, Hermen Hulst, director of PlayStation Studios, not only welcomed Savage Game Studios to the PlayStation family, but also revealed the formation of a division for the mobile market , which will focus on the creation of titles using new and existing properties of the company. This was what was said about it:
Our mobile games efforts will be equally additives, providing more ways for more people to interact with our content and striving to reach new audiences that are not familiar with PlayStation and our games. Savage Game Studios joins a newly created PlayStation Studios mobile division, which will operate regardless of the development of our console and focus on innovative experiences on the march based on new and existing PlayStation IP.
For his part, this was what Michail Katkoff, CEO and co-founder of Savage Game Studios said about his new home:
Established in 2020 and directed by me and my co-founder companions Nadjim Adjir and Michael Mcmanus, Savage Game Studios was born from our many years of experience in the development of mobile games that covers a series of Global Global IP of great success. Our governing vision was a creative space where experimentation and risk taking were not avoided cautiously, but hugged with enthusiasm. We have all worked on great studies and, although we respect the advantages of having broad resources, we wanted to stay small and agile to be able to make our own decisions.
‘So why?’ Can they be thinking, ‘Would you join PlayStation Studios?’ They are afraid of taking risks. All that, in addition to the ability to potentially take advantage of the incredible PlayStation IP catalog and the fact that we will benefit from the type of support that only they can provide… the most difficult question to answer would be ‘Why not?’
On behalf of all in Savage Game Studios, thanks for receiving us. We are eager to show you in what we have been working on!
Finally, Hulst said that this new division will not reduce the commitment that PlayStation has with the creation of AAA narrative experiences, as well as its efforts to continue expanding its catalog of games available on PC. Let us soon have more information about your participation in the mobile market.
In related issues, the PS5 rises in price in Mexico and more countries. Similarly, the PSVR2 already has a launch window.
Editor’s note:
It will be interesting to see what type of proposal does PlayStation take to the mobile market. Although the company’s properties have no place on this platform at the first instance, this does not mean that it cannot be d1. However, most likely we see original things. However, a prawn of some kind is not completely ruled out.
