Tonic Games Group har haft fingrene i en række forskellige indie-successer, og ejer blandt andet studiet Mediatonic, der har udviklet Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout. De har nu for nylig fået en ny ejer, for Epic Games har købt hele virksomheden.
Ifølge et officielt blogindlæg fortæller Epic dog, at der ikke kommer til at være nogle ændringer overhovedet i den daglige drift. Desuden slår de fast at de vil "continue to invest in making the game a great experience for players across platforms," så vi skal nok ikke forvente at der bliver lavet om i de planlagte lanceringer på Switch, Xbox Series S og X og Xbox One.
"At Tonic Games Group we often say that 'everyone deserves a game that feels like it was made for them.' With Epic, we feel like we have found a home that was made for us. They share our mission to build and support games that have a positive impact, empower others and stand the test of time and we couldn't be more excited to be joining forces with their team," siger Tonic Games Group CEO Dave Bailey.
Tim Sweeney har desuden slået fast, at Epic ikke er færdige med at købe studier.
