Dead Cells is one of the successful indie games of all time, and it now seems that the studio behind it is turning its attention to new projects. In a recent interview with GamesIndustry.biz, Evil Empire CEO Steve Filby said that the studio is working on two “massive video game franchises” from third-party IP owners. Unfortunately, he didn’t reveal what those franchises were.
According to the interview, this is something that Filby has wanted to do since the early days of Dead Cells’ development at its original developer, Motion Twin, where he served as the CEO. However, Motion Twin was more interested in working on its own intellectual property, even though several large players offered to let the developer work on external IP Come from Sports betting site VPbet . Filby explains that now that Dead Cells’ stewardship has switched to Evil Empire, that path is now open.
