Sony closes Guerilla Cambridge, developer of MediEvil, RIGS and more

GamesIndustry today reports that Sony is closing Guerilla Cambridge Studio, the studio behind titles such as RIGS: Mechanised Combat League, Killzone: Mercenary, the MediEvil series and more.

Sony confirmed the news, saying, “whilst we accept that this decision will mean that we risk losing high calibre staff, by focusing on other Studios with exciting new projects in development, (including continued work on PlayStation VR), we believe we will be in a stronger position going forward and able to offer the best possible content of the highest quality to our players.

“This decision should not take anything away from the incredible games and services that Guerrilla Cambridge has delivered.”

Sony added that move was “regrettable” but done “in order to deliver on our strategic objectives, it is necessary to make some changes to the European studios structure.”
