Pinnacle to distribute Kalypso titles in UK

Pinnacle is now the exclusive UK distributor for Kalypso Media's titles in the UK.

The publisher set up a UK office last month headed by former Codemasters exec Jonathan Hales.

"Having known Jonathan at Codemasters, and his reputation in the business, we had no hesitation in tendering for the opportunity to work with Kalypso, whose range has some genuine stand out titles," commented Peter Sleeman, MD of Pinnacle.

"As we have regularly shown, our sales teams can assist all sizes of publishers in maximising the sales of their titles and we are genuinely excited about the potential of the Kalypso range.2

Originally founded in Germany, Kalypso Media has a number of PC titles due by the end of the year, including Theatre of War, Campus, Star Assault and Hollywood Pictures 2.
