With all the turmoil centered around layoffs at38 StudiosandBioWare Austin, it’s comforting to note that there’s some developers out there who have been around a while and go from strength to strength. Such as Vancouver’s Relic Entertainment who is celebrating its 15th anniversary.
Founded in 1997, they knocked it out of the park with the brilliant outer-space RTSHomeworld. After releasing a sequel, Relic got down to the business of translating Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K universe into the excellentDawn of Warfranchise. In 2006, the WWII RTSCompany of Heroeswas another big hit with fans and critics.
Looking at the company’s record, it reads like a list of the best strategy games on PC in over a decade. So congratulations to Relic and here’s to another 15 years. Oh, and onceCompany of Heroes 2is done, is there maybe a chance ofHomeworld 3? Pretty please with sugar on top?
