Codemasters Fully Committing to Racing Games
-----------"We know that our hearts belong to racing in all its many glorious forms."
UK studio Codemasters has closed the Malta-based developer that made virtual card game Battle Decks. Battle Decks and Overlord Fellowship of Evil did not meet the internal expectations.
A spokesperson told Eurogamer that Codemasters has now decided to focus on racing games - the genre it's best known for.
"While it's been great to explore projects outside of racing, we know that our hearts belong to racing in all its many glorious forms. The success of DiRT Rally's Early Access programme has been incredible, F1 2015 was very successful reaching number one in many territories, we've recently announced that Micro Machines will come to mobile and we have a strong road map ahead of us that keeps racing as its razor focus."
"With Battle Decks' development complete, we're saying goodbye to Malta and looking to fold talent from its 11-person team into our most successful studios here in the UK as we double-down on racing to develop future titles that will demonstrate our absolute commitment to the category."
Back in 2012 Codemasters set-up of its Codemasters Racing label, then the company said that it would only develop racing games after Operation Flashpoint and Bodycount flopped.
