James Brooksby, founder of doublesix, announced today that Born Ready Games, a brand new games company based in Guildford, has taken over development of the upcoming space-action game Strike Suit Zero. Strike Suit Zero is currently on track for release later this year with the original team continuing their work on the game at Born Ready.
Brooksby, now CEO of Born Ready Games said:
“Our new independent games studio is dedicated to making Strike Suit Zero the best game it can be. It’s a labour of love for everyone involved and we are very happy to be able to finish and self-publish it under the new banner of Born Ready. We are at the birth of an exciting new development studio packed with talented people who all share the company’s grand ambitions.”
Born Ready Games was founded after securing successful funding and with the mutual agreement of former publisher and doublesix parent company Catalis SE.
Dominic Wheatley, CEO of Catalis SE added:
“We wish Born Ready Games and Strike Suit Zero all the best, and are looking forward to seeing the result of a project we have been so closely involved in.”
Strike Suit Zero is planned for a digital release on PC in the autumn of 2012 and console in early 2013. More details about the game will be revealed in the months ahead.
John is the founder and Editor in Chief at DSOGaming. He is a PC gaming fan and highly supports the modding and indie communities. Before creating DSOGaming, John worked on numerous gaming websites. While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
