Anchor Point Studios er det nye spilstudie, der finansernes af det kinesiske mediefirma NetEase. Paul Ehreth, der bl.a. har været chefdesigner for Remedy Entertainments actionhit Control, skal være Anchor Point Studios chef. Studiet vil have kontorer i Barcelona og Seattle, og vil lave AAA-spil med store budgetter.
Ehreth udtaler:
"We're so excited to officially drop our anchor in Barcelona, the hometown of my great-grandparents, and start building a strong team for our journey of exploration together with NetEase Games. Our studio's motto is 'Per Aspera, Ad Astra' ('through hardships, to the stars') because we want to build an adventure that will stay fresh and provide a unique experience that will surprise and delight people each time they play, and I want us to acknowledge the challenges we are setting out to face. We're grateful to NetEase Games for giving us the creative freedom and resources to build this interconnected world that will expand beyond games and reach into other mediums as well."

Det er endnu uklart, hvilken slags spil, som Anchor Point vil udvikle. Men med Ehreth som frontmand, kunne man godt forestille sig, at de vil udvikle thirdperson-actionspil.
