Creators of Company of Heroes unite, form Smoking Gun Interactive |
Ó
An official press release made available today has announced that the former Relic Entertainment senior staff have formed a new development studio dubbed Smoking Gun Interactive. Former producer John Johnson, former art director Angie Radwan-Pytlewski and former lead programmer Drew Dunlop all participated in the development of the award-winning Company of Heroes for the PC.
Johnson now serves as CEO for the newly-founded company, leading a team that has worked together for more than seven years in Relic's senior development team.
Past experiences in the development of Company of Heroes, Impossible Creatures, Homeworld, Need for Speed, NHL, NBA Live, and FIFA Soccer have encouraged the team to enter a spin-off bid in the games industry, while Relic turned its eyes toward massively multiplayer online games.
With former audio director Crispin Hands and former script writer Duane Pye tagging along, Smoking Gun is now gearing themselves to deliver quality titles based on original intellectual properties or those licensed to them by third-party companies. Games from Smoking Gun are planned to span across multiple platforms. Johnson concluded the announcement, stating:
As the industry evolves so do the ways that people interact with video games. With our collective input Smoking Gun will be at the forefront of producing innovative best-selling titles, that really push the envelop further than we've gone before.
