JoWood’s new expanded portfolio includes next-gen
JoWooD Productions Software AG has decided to expand their portfolio and are now adding next-gen titles to the list. JoWood (which is known for video games such as Gothic 3, SpellForce 2, Painkiller, Freak Out and Dungeon Lords) is already in negotiations with development studios and has slated their first releases to be out from 2008-2009.
The Austrian company has acquired a lot of franchises due to the Dreamcatcher buyout and is seeking to capitalize on their newer titles. JoWood Productions Software AG CEO Albert Seidl spoke on their acquisition of Dreamcatcher: “we are looking at DreamCatcher as our North American counterpart, and there are numerous and important synergies waiting to be exploited by all of us” Dreamcatcher is known for titles such as Syberia, Still Life, Keepsake, and Dark Fall.
All in all, JoWood is poised to make a major move to try and establish itself as one of the more dominant brands in the console gaming market. We will have to wait and see if their venture goes well.
