DICE veterans form Fall Damage

Four veterans of DICE, including one of the studio's co-founders, have launched a new venture in Stockholm: Fall Damage.

Markus Nyström is joined by Anders Gyllenberg, Mikael Kalms and Dan Vaderlind from DICE and chairwoman Maria Tjärnlund, who was previously the CEO of Swedish trade body Swedish Games Industry. The studio has taken early seed funding from Goodbye Kansas Game Invest, which remains a minority shareholder.

"For many years we have worked on massive productions in enormous teams," said CEO Anders Gyllenberg. "We found that we all shared a desire to create something of our own. Fall Damage is our opportunity to build something from the ground up."
