The publisher will be responsible for full financial and strategic support of the new The Chinese Room project and will handle the go-to-market planning. "The Chinese Room" will retain creative independence and intellectual property rights. No other details are available at this time.
From the very beginning of our talks with The Chinese Room, it was clear that we had to support their ambitious vision for the world they wanted to create. Our role as a publisher is to remove obstacles from their path, and this is especially important now. We are committed to providing them with clarity and resources so they can focus on creating a truly outstanding game.
