Private Division Announces Four New Publishing Partnerships Including Former Dragon Age Lead Designer

Take-Take Interactive's publishing label Private Division has announced 4 more publishing partners. With Die Gute Fabrik, Evening Star, Piccolo Studio, and Yellow Brick Games joining the coming.

This is following the recent acquisition of Roll7 in January with these 4 studios developing newly announced titles.

Founder of Die Gute Fabrik Nils Deneken stated:

“We’re excited about how strongly Private Division shares our vision for the experience we want to build for our playing audience, and for the ethos with which we’re collaborating on the process,” said Hannah Nicklin, Studio Lead and Creative Director at Die Gute Fabrik. “We’re so thrilled about our next story-driven adventure game and the team we’ve brought together to create it, and we can’t wait to share more down the line.”

Evening Star's Dave Padilla stated:

“We are focused on leveraging the team’s unique backgrounds with an aim to develop electrifying experiences charged with our signature sense of style,” said Dave Padilla, CEO at Evening Star. “Private Division has been a fantastic partner, and their team is equally passionate about our vision. As we grow the studio, we are excited to share more about the new world we are creating.”

Piccolo Studio's Alexis Corominas:

“At Piccolo Studio, we craft stories that are very personal yet center on universal themes that have an impact on everyone who plays our games,” said Alexis Corominas, Co-Founder of Piccolo Studio. “We tell our stories in unique ways, and we’re thrilled to have found a publisher that supports our vision and is equally invested in seeing the story reach a wide audience.”

Yellow Brick Games' Mike Laidlaw, who was the lead designer of Dragon Age:

"I find myself energized by the challenge of helping build a new studio—full of incredible talent, ambitious ideas, and real focus on our product—while taking risks that might not be possible in AAA game development," said Mike Laidlaw, Chief Creative Officer at Yellow Brick Games. "We want to deliver something special for our debut title, and partnering with Private Division provides our team with the support to create a game that's truly memorable.

Private Division has not had the best reputation as when the company severed ties with Star Theory, the people behind Kerbal Space Program, and hired those people under a new contract. This is a company made from Take-Take Interactive that has a lot of anti-consumer measures with the most recent being GTA Definitive Edition launched with no quality assurance and pulling the original versions before the game's launch.
