Created in close partnership with Games Workshop.
NetEase Games subsidiary Jackalope Games has rebranded as Jackalyptic Games, and is currently in early development on a game based on a Warhammer intellectual property created in close partnership with Games Workshop, the studio announced.
Led by industry veteran Jack Emmert, the rebranded studio retains the full team that worked under the Jackalope Games name to continue its focus on the development of “top-tier” console and PC games.
“As someone who has molded my career developing expansive MMO stories, I’m proud to unveil that our first game in development at Jackalyptic Games will focus on the rich universes of Warhammer,” said Jackalyptic Games CEO Jack Emmert in a press release. “Bringing the deep lore of this IP to our game is a massive undertaking, and we are thrilled to work alongside Games Workshop to bring this vision to life.”
Jackalyptic Games will work closely with Games Workshop to engage their respective communities for insights and feedback throughout the course of development.
