EA has just acquired a brand-new developer to fold into its Worldwide Studios organization– Industrial Toys. Known for titles such as the mobile FPS-RPG hybrid Midnight Star: Renegade (pictured above), the team is the newest to join the EA family. The acquisition, which just closed this month, brings exciting new possibilities to Worldwide Studios. EA had the following to say on the matter:
“Creating breakthrough games takes passionate developers and incredible creativity, and each time we’ve worked with the Industrial Toys team, we’ve been inspired by their unique approach,” said Samantha Ryan, SVP and Group GM in EA’s Worldwide Studios group. “We’re thrilled to have them join our studio organization, pursue new ideas together and bring amazing new games to our players.”
With prestigious talent spanning from companies such as Bungie Studios to Disney Interactive, this is certainly a team to keep an eye on. For more on Industrial Toys and everything else this industry has to offer, stay tuned to Gaming Trend.
