Techland becomes a global publisher

Polish developer Techland, creator of the original Dead Island, as well as Call of Juarez and more recently Dying Light, have announced plans to become a global publisher. Techland's CEO Paweł Marchewka put it as follows in writing:

"As a developer, we have worked with many renowned publishers in the past so we know first-hand what makes these kinds of collaborations efficient and satisfying for both parties. After the successful promotional campaigns for Dying Light and Dying Light: The Following, led by our own dedicated team, we believe this is the perfect time to use everything we've learned and help other developers.

We believe in a flexible and open publishing philosophy, based on respect for the players. We will encourage and financially support developers through investing in bold, unconventional games with great entertainment value.

Our goal is to release 2 major multiplatform titles, and 4 in digital distribution each year. We're already scanning the market for opportunities and we'll announce the first game to be released under Techland Publishing soon."

More publishers are always welcome as it means more support and funding for developers.
