Starbreeze - best known for releasing Payday 2 and Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons - has begun publishing digital games. The company will help developers with marketing, distribution, and publishing duties.
"Having been a developer for more than two decades, we know what developers need and what challenges they face," said Starbreeze CEO Bo Andersson Klint. "As a partner, we aim to create deals that benefit both the developer and us. We’re taking the classic 'developer and publisher' model and throwing it out the window. As your wingman, we will have your back while you pilot your game to success."
"I see Starbreeze as a catalyst for talented developers and digital publishing, particularly on Steam, where we are off to a flying start with our Payday-franchise. Simply put – we want to create more stars."
Its first publishing deal is with Lion Game Lion for shooter Raid: World War II. It invested $8 million to help develop the game for a 50 percent royalty. Each company also owns 50 percent of the rights to the IP.
