Neon Doctrine to merge into Raw Fury

Neon Doctrine will merge into sister company Raw Fury, and Neon Doctrine’s published titles will be managed by Raw Fury going forward, the companies announced.

“As part of a broader restructuring within our group, Neon Doctrine will merge into our sister company Raw Fury,” Neon Doctrine CEO Iain Garner said on LinkedIn. “This means our catalogue titles will be managed by Raw Fury going forward, and I will also be stepping down from my role.”

Garner continued, “Over the past 10 years, Neon Doctrine has grown from three people working out of my kitchen in China to becoming a global publisher, supporting more than 30 incredible games and collaborating with talented developers around the world. I’m proud of what we’ve built together and deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey.

“While this marks the end of Neon Doctrine in its current form, I know our games are in excellent hands with Raw Fury and will continue to thrive as part of their ecosystem.”

Neon Doctrine co-founder and chief corporate officer Vlad Tsopljak will leave the company alongside Garner.

“This wasn’t a decision taken lightly by either of us,” Tsopljak said in a separate post. “After long, deep discussions, Iain and I concluded this was the best path forward—it ensures the games we poured our hearts (and youth) into are supported, celebrated, and will continue to thrive for years to come.”

Neon Doctrine was founded in 2015, and is a subsidiary of Combined Effect.
