In an interview with GamesBeat, Gustavsson stated that TTK’s founders intend to constructed their studio to be extra versatile. “Instead of just jumping on the dessert and start building a game, we took our time to start laying a foundation… so that when we start bringing people on board, people feel that they’re at a large company in terms of professionalism and safety but also the fun parts of being a small, nimble studio with a blank canvas to fill.”
The co-founders didn’t disclose a lot about TTK’s new venture, besides to say they’re beginning recent with a brand new IP. In the brief time period, they’re centered on recruiting new expertise to the studio. Nygren informed GamesBeat, “We all want to design something from the ground without any history that we need to relate to. At DICE we ended being in leadership roles, which is great, but I joined DICE in the first place to work on a game… That’s a big driving force for us, to set up a small studio where we can work closely with the craftsmanship.”
