RageQuitters chats briefly with Tripwire Interactive regarding new IPs and their upcoming Co-op Survival Horror sequel, Killing Floor 2.
Former Tripwire CEO John Gibson has claimed that "social terrorism" was behind his ousting as the company's head last year.
From Gematsu: "Embracer Group has acquired Bitwave Games, Gioteck, Limited Run Games, Middle-earth Enterprises, Singtrix, Tatsujin, Tripwire Interactive, and Tuxedo Labs, as well as established a new operative group called Embracer Freemode."
I think I saw a blurb about Koei Tecmo too, but not sure if that was real as I dont see the press release on their site.

Embracer group doesn’t seem to produce many smash hits games. Yet the company is constantly expanding. Embracer, must be relying on investor money ?
Saudi Arabia just recently invested 1 billion into Embracer. Keep in mind they did so through their sovereign wealth fund, which is spearheaded by Mohammad bin Salman.
Interesting news here and seems to be a change in the industry. Tripwire Interactive have announced a new work model which has been an area of focus in the industry.
