WipEout developers launch new studio with futuristic sports game planned
Developers from the original PS1 classic WipEout have formed a new studio, with a futuristic sports game on the way.
Starlight Games is a new studio based in Liverpool, UK, founded by former Psygnosis developer Gary Nichols.
He’s joined by co-creator of WipEout Nick Burcombe, and Skate co-creator and former Horizon: Call of the Mountain director Andy Santos.
The studio will focus on developing new IP with innovative gameplay, all using Unreal Engine 5, plus it seeks to discover young new talent.
Its first game will be House of Golf 2 – a sort of home-based crazy golf game – releasing in summer 2024 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. That’s a follow up to the first game released on Switch in 2019.
