The Company will be the publisher of the most recent productions from the Fool’s Theory game studio, based in Bielsko-Biała, Poland, and Digital Sun Games of Spain.
11 bit studios S.A. is expanding its publishing portfolio, the key items of which so far have been Moonlighter (launched on the market in 2018) and Children of Morta (2019). “The sales and financial success of both titles has encouraged us to more aggressively invest in publishing projects. This is why the budgets of our upcoming projects, including those for which the Company has already signed contracts, will be much larger than those allocated for Moonlighter or Children of Morta,” says Grzegorz Miechowski, President of the Management Board of 11 bit studios S.A. “On each of these games, we spent around PLN 2m-3m and the investment paid back very quickly. We believe the commercial potential of the new titles to be significantly higher,” adds Grzegorz Miechowski.
The Company under his management has initialled three contracts to publish computer games created by external game development studios. The first project, a role playing game under the working title of Vitriol, has been developed by Fool’s Theory, a game studio based in Bielsko-Biała, Poland, which has also created a very well received game entitled Seven: The Days Long Gone. “11 bit studios S.A. has been known for its ability to create a unique atmosphere in its games.
I believe that Vitriol perfectly matches the titles our partner likes working on,” said Jakub Rokosz, owner and project lead at Fool’s Theory.
The second project is being carried out by Digital Sun Games of Spain, the producer of Moonlighter. “11 bit studios S.A. did a great job as the publisher of Moonlighter. This is why cooperation with them on the next title, based on a completely new IP, is a natural step for us,” said Javier Gimenez, Digital Sun Games’ CEO. The new production from the Spanish studio has the working title Foxhole. 11 bit studios S.A. has not disclosed the details of the third publishing project. All is known is that a foreign development studio is responsible for producing the game.
