HYBE IM is joining Bonfire Studios to bring their upcoming multiplayer game, Project Torch, to Japan and Korea. It sounds like a wild combo, right? Bonfire Studios will handle the western release themselves.
This partnership was just announced and has been buzzing around the community since then. For those who might not know, Bonfire Studios is founded by some former big names from Blizzard Entertainment. These guys have put together an impressive team that’s already snagged about $25 million in funding from Riot Games and other investors.
Project Torch is all about creating a blend of competitive fun and team-based action. It promises players a mix of co-op gameplay while throwing in some thrilling PvP elements, too! To go beyond mere combat by crafting a lively environment where strategy really matters. I can’t help but wonder what surprises they have cooked up behind closed doors!
