incredible talents and long-time industry veterans, it is creating a new, 
exciting multiplayer AAA shooter game that pushes the boundaries of gameplay, 
player freedom, customization options as well as narrative experience within

offer we will jointly create an immersive experience like we've never seen 
before," states Neill Blomkamp.

perspective of filmmaking to video game development brings interactive

perfect completion to the narrative and visual art lead roles in our team. We 
are extremely proud that he is joining us - while we are creating our own 
universe, some of our inspiration originates in his works. We always hoped we 
can add a bit of his magic to our game - now this is happening. The team have 
been working hard on pre-production over the past year - having Neill joining 
us at this stage is bringing us closer to fulfilling our mission of delivering 
the next evolution of shooter games," adds Vlad Korolev, CEO and co-founder of
