Atari publishing company has acquired several intellectual properties (IPs) from Ubisoft, aiming to introduce these games on upcoming systems.
As reported by Business Wire, the company now owns the publishing rights to the following titles:
- Child of Eden
- Cold Fear
- Grow Home
- Grow Up
- I Am Alive
During this period from 2005 to 2016, numerous projects produced by Ubisoft were released. However, these projects have since been put on hold while Ubisoft concentrates their efforts primarily on their most prominent series, such as the Assassin’s Creed franchise.
Now, Atari plans to bring them all back onto “new platforms and renewed publishing frameworks”.
It appears that all these games are set to be released again on contemporary platforms, and there might be further installments coming from these series. Here’s a quote from Atari’s chairman and CEO, Wade Rosen:
“We’re excited to announce that our classic games will soon be available on modern systems. And who knows? There could be more exciting additions to come from this beloved series.
Both Ubisoft and Atari are renowned for creating captivating game worlds that players can grow attached to – games that have touched the hearts of numerous generations, not only due to their gameplay but because of the emotions they elicited. We’re thrilled to reintroduce these iconic titles while simultaneously seeking opportunities to develop and advance these franchises.
Child of Eden is a rhythm-based shooting game that was created by Q Entertainment and essentially serves as the spiritual sequel to Rez.
Cold Fear is the oldest game in the mix, a PS2 survival horror shooter from Darkworks.
The game titled “Grow Home” is an innovative 3D platformer where your mission is to nurture and ascend a massive plant. Its successor is called “Grow Up”.
Finally, I Am Alive is a survival action game about exploring a post-apocalyptic setting.
This assemblage of games is quite intriguing, even though not every title has been universally beloved. However, by offering easy access to these games for both longtime enthusiasts and novice players, it can be seen as a commendable move.
Here’s how Ubisoft’s vice president of new business Deborah Papiernik puts it:
For many years, countless gamers have explored these virtual worlds, and now, this opportunity will allow long-time enthusiasts to rekindle cherished memories while giving newcomers a chance to encounter them for the first time. Atari, a gaming icon with a deep affection for its historical games, is thrilled to observe how these timeless titles will transform and resonate with players in novel, impactful ways.
