I fjor stengte utvikleren Crytek fem av deres syv utviklerstudioer, og nå har det ene av disse blitt gjenåpnet som et uavhengig studio. Crytek Black Sea heter nå Black Sea Games, og på selskapets offisielle hjemmesideforklarer de at studioet ble opprettet allerede i november 2016. Der kan vi også lese at de har noe nytt på gang:
"Welcome to our home. Black Sea Games is a new game company, but we have been around for awhile. Recently we realized we missed the 'old times', the good old core-gaming, the sleepless nights spent solving that quest or defeating the next enemy on the map, while at the same time working hard during the small hours to quickly add another great feature to our own game. Well, this is how Black Sea Games was born... again! Look around, subscribe to our newsletter and follow us on the Web. Thank you!
Black Sea Games Ltd. is an independent game development company based in Sofia, Bulgaria, founded in November 2016. Our mission is to create hard-core games that will entertain you over and over again. We believe the best gaming experiences are coming from challenging the players with meaningful choices, while giving them the freedom to create (and share) their own in-game stories."
