It’s been just over a year since Rocksteady founders Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker left the studio, in the midst of development on Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, due out in a month.
It has now been announced that the two founders have opened a new games studio called Hundred Star Games in north-east London. This is reported by Polygon, which intercepted the names Walker and Hill on the company website Endole.
A description of the studio on the Great Place to Work website provides a bit more information.
– Hundred Star Games is a computer games startup based in East London. “Our ethos is to assemble a small team of just 100 industry veterans and emerging talent, all dedicated to creating groundbreaking gaming experiences that inspire and captivate gamers worldwide,” describes the studio itself.
The studio is currently recruiting new employees through its website, and Polygon reports that it has hired several game developers from Rocksteady in recent months.
Rocksteady is best known for the three Batman: Arkham games they developed between 2009 and 2015. The games, which featured Batman running around in Arkam Asylum and later Arkham City, were critically acclaimed and a huge success for the studio.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a little different from the studio, focusing more on multiplayer with up to three friends. Here you take on the role of the four-leaf clover Harley Quinn, King Shark, Deadshot and Captain Boomerang as they fight against evil versions of Superman, The Flash and more. It is still possible to play it alone.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be released on February 2nd for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.
