Entwicklerstudio Runic Games (Torchlight, Hob) wurde geschlossen

Mit Runic Games hat es das nächste Enwicklerstudio binnen kürzester Zeit getroffen, welches geschlossen wurde. Dies gaben der Entwickler und Publisher Perfect World Entertainment nun in einer Stellungsnahme bekannt. Der Indie-Entwickler zeichnete sich in der Vergangenheit vor allem durch den Titel Torchlight aus, erst vor wenigen Wochen veröffentlichte das Studio mit Hob außerdem sein letztes, bei Kritikern und Spielern durchaus positiv aufgenommenes Spiel. Marsh Lefler, Leiter des Studios, veröffentlichte auf der Seite des Entwicklers folgendes Statement.

Hey everyone,

It’s been over nine years since a rag-tag team of 17 developers helped open Runic Games. We’ve been so lucky for the community that has supported us and made us successful. Thanks to that support, we have had the chance to meet and work with the best people in the world. Our team here at Runic has released three successful games, and over that time we have seen many changes; team members got married, kids were born, but the most important thing is that we have become a family.

I’m sorry to say that today will be Runic’s last day open. Our focus is on our family here, and helping them find a new place to call home. If you are in games and looking for some of the best talent in the industry, please email jobs@runicgames.com.

For those that love the Torchlight series, there will be some news coming. And for all our fans, our community and multiplayer services will keep running even after the studio’s lights go off.

It has been an amazing experience. To my family here at Runic, I know we won’t be far from each other, and I’ll miss seeing you all every week.

You haven’t heard the last of us,

Marsh Lefler
Studio Head
