About Relentless Software

Relentless Software was formed in late 2003 by Andrew Eades and David Amor. Both Eades and Amor have track records in the videogames industry that include working at DMA, Virgin and Electronic Arts, and on many games including the Lemmings and Harry Potter franchises. The company is based in Brighton and currently employs 25 staff with plans to expand to 50 over the coming months.

The company plans to create and develop new and exciting games for the mass market - re-hashing the same old ideas and releasing me-too titles is not part of the plan.

Relentless released their first title, DJ: Decks and FX (Sony) in late 2004 and was subsequently nominated for a BAFTA. Relentless was also nominated for 'Best New Studio' in the recent Develop Industry Excellence Awards. For further information please visit the company website: www.relenteless.co.uk
