Posted September 1st, 2009 by Martuk
Funcom is extending its reach with the establishment of a new game studio in Montral, Canada. While it's unclear what game projects the studio will be working on for Funcom, it has been announced that it will play an important role in the development of Funcom's upcoming MMORPG 'The Secret World'.
Funcom is one of the most multi-cultural game developers in the business, with over 320 employees from all corners of the world employed at the company’s offices in Norway, the US, China, and Switzerland. The company is responsible for the best-selling MMO ‘Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures’ that shipped over 1.2 million copies to retail in 2008, as well as the pioneering sci-fi MMO ‘Anarchy Online’. The company has developed more than 20 titles since its founding in 1993; including the critically acclaimed ‘The Longest Journey’ and ‘Dreamfall’adventure games. Funcom is currently working on the expansion pack for ‘Age of Conan’ called‘Rise of the Godslayer’ as well as its new MMO ‘The Secret World’. Developers at the Montréal studio will play an important role in the development of both of these games.
