Playlogic relaunches

Playlogic has relaunched as a newly-formed company, now named Playlogic Entertainment N.V.

The troubled publisher filed for bankruptcy back in July, but restarts its business this month. Part of the company’s former staff has been re-employed and will work under a new management team.

Playlogic Entertainment will focus on developing products for Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo platforms, with details of its first titles to follow soon.

It will also grow its presence in the mobile gaming space through a foreign subsidiary that develops titles for mobile phones, tablets and browsers. The publisher is also in final negotiations to acquire another firm in this sector.

Playlogic Entertainment Incorporated – a US-listed company – is not involved in the relaunch.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
