Back in 2023, NetEase Games announced the creation of a new team called Anchor Point Studios. Led by Paul Ehreth, who previously worked at Smilegate in Barcelona and Remedy on Alan Wake 2, the studio specializes in action-adventure games for consoles and PC.
This week, Anchor Point Studios reached an important milestone in its short existence as the company became independent. Ehreth announced the news in a post on LinkedIn.
“This is a significant change for us, but one that we’re approaching with optimism, clarity, and excitement for what’s ahead.
Now, as an independent studio, we have the opportunity to focus our vision even more sharply and pursue new partnerships that align with our creative ambitions. Our team remains motivated and deeply committed to the incredible game we’re building. The passion that brought us together is stronger than ever.”
Ehreth also expressed his gratitude to NetEase and said he is currently in talks with “prospective investors and partners”.
