The Spanish video game publisher, BadLand Games, has launched its new international publishing division for indie games, BadLand Games Publishing. They’ve also opened their new BadLand Games Research Poland office in Warsaw. It’s at this very office that development on a new, as yet unannounced, game has already begun. BadLands CEO, Luis Quintans commented about these announcements:
“BadLand Games Publishing is born from the ambition to take the creativity and freshness of the new indie games to a wider audience. There are lots of newly founded studios that are breaking away with visual and playable conventions, and our goal is to help them reach a public who is avid for innovative content.”
The first two games to go through the new BadLand Games Publishing division are Vostok Inc., and Necrocosmos. Vostok Inc. is a twin-stick, sci-fi themed shooter developed by UK developer Nosebleed Interactive. You take on the role of a greedy space capitalist with ambitions of becoming filthy rich. The game is set to launch on July 27th in digital form for PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita. Necrocosmos on the other hand, is a Metroidvania action game developed by Spanish development studio, Andromeda Project. The game features 8-bit aesthetics and an open-world galaxy. A Kickstarter campaign for Necrocosmos is set to begin in August of this year.
