Barcelona Studio Expands to Buenos Aires with Next-Gen Vision

This update outlines a strategic expansion from a Barcelona-based studio renowned for its work on Citadelum, One Military Camp, and adaptations including Hyper Light Drifter and SOMA. The studio has recently established a new branch in Argentina’s capital, designed to pursue innovative projects on emerging platforms.

The newly formed Buenos Aires division mirrors its parent studio in structure but is driven by a focus on next-generation systems rather than traditional markets. Débora Sofía Theaux Leutgeb, known for leading The Global Game Jam in the region, has taken charge of operations, ensuring that the team’s work emphasizes creative and technical innovation.

Key points from the announcement include:

• The first projects from the Buenos Aires branch are set to launch this spring, with the studio stepping in as a publisher rather than solely producing its own titles.
• Specific game titles have not yet been revealed.
• This decision mirrors the broader shift toward expanding creative talent in Latin America, where studios and projects are increasingly reaching international audiences.

Examples of regional success stories are evident in studios like Etermax, and in titles such as Arranger, Despelote, Two Strikes, along with upcoming projects like Wind Runners and Sky Dust. The announcement also coincided with separate rumors regarding a new phase of development for The Wolf Among Us 2 in Argentina, though there is no direct connection between the two events.

In related news, Citadelum is scheduled for Set to debut on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S this March 5, marking another significant milestone for the studio.
