Absurd Ventures, the corporate fashioned by longtime Rockstar mainstay Dan Houser a number of years in the past, has introduced that it is fashioned a contemporary studio below its umbrella. The studio, referred to as Absurd Marin, comes with a beginning workers of a number of former builders of Ascendant Studios’ ill-fated Immortals of Aveum.
Yep, that is the Immortals of Aveum that got here out final 12 months amid a complete barrage of different attention-grabbing issues, and, for the million causes unlucky issues like this could occur, did not ship the gross sales the pretty lofty funds the execs had pencilled in for it led them to anticipate. This was adopted by some layoffs at Ascendant, which clearly nobody with sense, regardless of how they felt in regards to the recreation itself, needed to see.
Now, Immortals’ director and Ascendant co-founder Bret Robbins might be main Absurd Marin (thanks, GamesIndustry.biz), which is made up of “about 20 builders from the core workforce behind Immortals of Aveum” as of writing, and might be engaged on a “story-driven journey recreation”.
