/// Starbreeze has sold the Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons IP to 505 Games!
Starbreeze, an independent creator, publisher and distributor of computer and video games, announced today that it has signed an agreement for the sale of its game “Brothers – A Tale of Two Sons” for a total sum of US$ 500 000 in cash. The game has sold more than a total of 800.000 units worldwide during its lifetime.
“The sale represents our final transition to the digital strategy. With Brothers we’ve created a strong and critically acclaimed IP, which we now feel can be best nurtured under a new owner. Going forward, we will continue development focused on expansive design, a concept proven with the PayDay franchise. Brothers will continue to generate awe and admiration for the great storytelling standard Josef Fares set under 505 Games watchful eye.” said Bo Andersson Klint, CEO of Starbreeze.
Ian Howe, President of 505 Games, said “Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is a remarkable game, one of the most affecting games of the last generation and one of which 505 Games has been very proud to be associated. This acquisition reflects 505 Games’ stated strategy of owning and controlling its own IP, and, moreover, IP that can contribute something meaningful to the world of interactive entertainment.”

/// Bungie Adding Hard Mode to Crota’s End in Destiny!
Destiny will soon get an update that will add a hard mode to Crota’s End, Bungie revealed in its weekly blog post.
“If you’ve experienced Hard Mode in Vault of Glass, you have some clues for how we can scale up a Raid. Prepare to take better care of your teammates. You’ll have fewer options for healing yourself, and each other. The enemies you’re about to face are stronger and more prone to temper tantrums.”
