10TACLE STUDIOS establish strategic partnership with Stormregion

Darmstadt, 19th April 2006 - 10TACLE STUDIOS and leading Hungarian developer Stormregion have decided to expand their operations on the brand "Codename Panzers" beyond the PC by creating a tactical action game on Next Generation Consoles (XBOX 360 and PS3). Also in production will be a turn-based strategy game for handhelds (Sony PSP and NintendoDS).

Only last year, the two companies announced their new partnership and the production of a sequel to the successful real-time strategy game. In this context, they also announced that the project with the working title "Codename Panzers: Cold War" for PC would for the first time have a different setting than World War II.

"We are very excited about the creative possibilities that the next generation console titles can offer gamers and the new directions it opens up for the Codename Panzers brand. We are proud to expand the brand with our partner 10TACLE STUDIOS "commented Tamás Szerémy, CEO of Stormregion Ltd.

"We feel that with the experienced Stormregion team we have found the right partner to try out something new in the context of strategy games and set new quality standards. At the same time, the expansion of the brand "Codename Panzers" to different platforms is in line with the company strategy to build up our brands internationally and make them last", Michele Pes, CEO of 10TACLE STUDIOS AG, explains the strategic approach of the collaboration.
