Koch Media launches new publishing label Prime Matter

Koch Media, a subsidiary of Embracer Group, has announced the launch of Prime Matter, a new premium gaming label “dedicated to delivering a range of immersive and diverse games from amazing game development talent all around the globe.”

The name “Prime Matter” stems from the definition of matter with no substantial or pre-defined form of its own, allowing it to morph into various substances without remaining any kind of substance indefinitely. Through “versatility, flexibility, and adaptability,” the label can reform itself to help its partners achieve their potential with their games.
