French firm Microids has opened a brand new third-party publishing division.
The venture is already teaming up with Kwalee to release The Precinct from Fallen Tree Games. This new publishing arm has seven staff which it already employed.
“We are delighted to announce the creation of our Third-Party Publishing division, which will allow us to extend our expertise to new partners while strengthening relationships with our long-standing collaborators,” Microids boss Stéphane Longeard said.
“These strategic partnerships demonstrate our ability to work with major industry players, bringing exceptional diversity and quality in gaming experiences to our audience. We are especially excited to bring the retail versions of The Precinct to a global audience and to continue enriching our catalog with iconic titles.”
Kwalee’s VP of publishing for PC and console, Ben Forrester, added: “We are thrilled to partner with Microids to bring The Precinct to a wider audience. Their expertise in physical distribution aligns perfectly with our vision for the game.”
