This year we were surprised by the unfortunate news of the closure of several studios, where the case of Tango Gameworks was incomprehensible. But today we have great news, because There is hope for Tango Gameworks in light of the action Krafton has reportedly taken to revive it. It is obvious that Krafton's intention is beyond allowing Tango Gameworks to resume its activity, since with this action it has also managed to acquire licenses such as The Evil Within, Ghostwire: Tokyo or HIFI Rush.
According to the information published by GamesIndustry, an operation would have been carried out by which the Korean publisher responsible for games such as PUBG or The Callisto Protocol, has acquired Tango Gameworks. And what they may want to do with this is what has caused quite a stir. In fact, having acquired the entire set implies that they want these intellectual properties to remain with the developer, with the purpose of publishing new titles.
There is still hope for Tango Gameworks, as it will have the opportunity to continue working with Krafton.
In fact, the option that has been talked about the most is to recover HIFI Rush, and to continue the latest IP from Tango Gameworks with new games. Krafton's strength seems to have allowed it to acquire this company, which, given its situation, will not have been expensive or costly. An agreement is assumed to be able to acquire an infrastructure that has been closed and has ensured a smooth transition to maintain the continuity of the study. This will allow the talented team to continue developing Hi-Fi Rush. and explore new projects, maintaining its commitment to innovation and offering new and exciting experiences to fans.
A game that, left its arrival on Nintendo Switch in limbo after seeing the light on Playstation 5. It seems that this license is the first one that has been heard, but We must not forget that there was more to Tango Gameworks. And as Xbox said, the situation at the studio was complicated after the founder left. Although, in reality, we would be entering into a spiral of blame, since Mikami left because he was not happy with the situation at the studio at Zenimax. In any case, many interesting projects were left in limbo.
And it may be precisely another of the factors that they should review, because they should also be able to consider the continuity of any of the projects that they had underway some time ago. The truth is that everything sounds too good, knowing that the studio finally closed the door for good. Now is a time when patience is required, because a new stage is opening that will breathe hope into Tango Gameworks by opening a new stage with the help of Krafton.
The closure of Tango Gameworks has become a goldmine for Remedy Entertainment, who have offered jobs to the laid-off workers.
