CI Games, the developer and publisher of the popular Sniper Ghost Warrior series has today announced it’s launching a new publishing label, United Label, that will focus on indie titles.
While announcing the new venture, the Polish-based company revealed the label’s first four projects.
The following information is from the official press release:
Eldest Souls is a pixel art RPG adventure game from Fallen Flag Studios. “This is our first game but United Label believed in the game and the team from day-one, they are supporting us to reach our ambitions”, says Francesco Barsotti, co-founder of Fallen Flag Studios.
Co-founded by two ex-Guerilla Games Art Directors, Polygon Treehouse is bringing a bright new approach to Point & Click Adventure games with Röki. “We created a dark and contemporary fairytale with deep narrative and puzzles, say Tom Jones & Alex Kanaris-Sotiriou, co-founder of Polygon Treehouse. Working with United Label enables us to be part of a creative and dedicated team.”
Tails of Iron is the new game of Odd Bug Studios, the creators of The Lost Bear. “Tails of Iron is a 2D cinematic combat adventure with hand-crafted combat encounters. Joining United Label allows us to accelerate our development as a studio, and to plan for a large reach at release”, says Daniel Robinson, team leader at Odd Bug Studios.
Horae is a roguelike RPG with an original combat system. ”Our goal is to offer a new take on the genre by deeply combining stories, beauty of graphics, and treasures through intense gameplay. Working with United Label came naturally, as they are looking, as we do, at bringing a new approach to existing genres.” says Victor le Fay, co-founder at Lunaris Iris.
Röki and Eldest Souls will be released in 2019, while Tails of Iron and Horae will come in 2020.
