Haarlem, The Netherlands – 20 December 2010 – In a major coup for the publisher, Iceberg Interactive have announced they have secured publishing rights in several territories for the award-winning ‘Tactical Survival Horror Zombie RTS’ for PC ‘ Trapped Dead’, from German publisher Headup Games. The deal comprises the English version for the United Kingdom, Benelux, Scandinavia and Australia / New Zealand.

Iceberg Interactive CEO Erik Schreuder says: “We are really looking forward to releasing this awesome title as a first joint effort with Headup. The bloodthirsty gamers in our territories love a decent gorefest and Trapped Dead has this in spades, together with an amazing RTS twist. There is nothing like this on the market and gamers are going to love it.”

“We are delighted that we have found such a great publishing partner to bring our newest IP into other territories”, comments Dieter Schoeller, Managing Director of Headup Games. “Iceberg Interactive know the target group well and are no newcomers to the horror genre, bringing their Killing Floor expertise to the table and giving Trapped Dead the deserved momentum in retail.”
