Reforged Studios has finalized the acquisition of both Ground Shatter and Extra Mile Studios
Reforged Studios, a game publishing company, has expanded its portfolio by acquiring Ground Shatter and Extra Mile Studios.
Ground Shatter, founded and directed by James Parker, is notable for its development of the roguelike deck-builder game, Fights in Tight Spaces.
Extra Mile Studios, led by Bobby Farmer, has gained recognition for its collaborative work on Revolution Software's Broken Sword series.
Peter van der Watt, CEO of Reforged Studios, commented on the acquisitions, stating, "I was already a big fan of the games the teams at Ground Shatter and Extra Mile had built, and yet I could see that both teams still had a lot of potential to grow their success even further with the right support around them."
"When we made the list of studios we wanted to become part of Reforged, Ground Shatter and Extra Mile were right at the very top. Fortunately, both studios were as excited about the possibilities as we were, and so we are thrilled that they are joining us on our journey," he added.
Founded in 2023, Reforged Studios is led by van der Watt alongside COO Colin Anderson, who has prior experience at Denki, Rockstar Games, and Epic Games, and CCO Ross Laurie, an entrepreneur in emerging technologies.
Further announcements regarding additional acquisitions are anticipated later this year.
