Our strong partnership with Sony Interactive Entertainment started with <em>Super Stardust HD<\/em> on PlayStation 3 and since then we have made arcade inspired games for all of the PlayStation platforms. With <em>Returnal<\/em> for PlayStation 5, our most recent release, our biggest foray into third-person action gaming solidified our voice and brand in the industry as delivering unique and quality player experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are so excited to finally join the PlayStation Studios family! This gives our studio a clear future and a stable opportunity to continue delivering on gameplay centric approaches, while still experimenting with new methods of narrative delivery and pushing the boundaries of this modern artform. Locally here in Helsinki, this also means that we will officially expand the PlayStation family to a growing industry hub and secure the legacy of the oldest game studio in Finland.<\/p>\n<div class=\"g g-3\">\n<div class=\"g-single a-14\">\n<div style=\"margin: 0 0 15px;\"><!-- Gematsu - 300x250 Static (5f806c91d0b2e22f7c503a7a) - 300x250 - Place in <BODY> of page where ad should appear --><\/p>\n<div id=\"ad-container-888\"><\/div>\n<p><script>\n    window.top.__vm_add = window.top.__vm_add || [];\n    (function(success) {\n        if(window.document.readyState !== \"loading\"){\n            success();\n        } else {\n            window.document.addEventListener(\"DOMContentLoaded\", function(){\n                success();\n            });\n        }\n    })(function () {\n            var placement = document.createElement(\"div\");\n            placement.setAttribute(\"class\", \"vm-placement\");\n            placement.setAttribute(\"data-id\", \"5f806c91d0b2e22f7c503a7a\");\n            document.querySelector(\"#ad-container-888\").appendChild(placement);\n            window.top.__vm_add.push(placement);\n    });\n<\/script><!-- \/ Gematsu - 300x250 Static (5f806c91d0b2e22f7c503a7a) --><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cFinally, what this means for our fans? We at Housemarque are gamers, and we have grown from the need to perfect and tinker with facets of games that we have found most fascinating. We are also not known for shying away from running our own course and trying out new combinations. With the backing of Sony Interactive Entertainment and its family of studios supporting us, we can truly grow into our place in the industry and show what Housemarque can create with no limitations. We can\u2019t wait to show everyone what will be in store in the upcoming years, and we hope to usher in more lasting memories and exhilarating titles for the next quarter century and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"post-author\"><i class=\"fa fa-user\"><\/i>Sal Romano<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
