Ghost Ship Games launches publishing label Ghost Ship Publishing
First titles to be announced on March 2.Deep Rock Galactic developer Ghost Ship Games has announced the launch of new publishing label Ghost Ship Publishing.
Described as the next stage of the company’s evolution following its acquisition by Embracer Group, Ghost Ship Publishing already has a slate of titles set to be revealed later this year.
“Becoming a publisher is a way for us to give a bit back to the industry, and to help lift up both the Danish gaming scene and other small developers like ourselves across the globe,” said Ghost Ship Games CEO Soren Lundgaard in a press release. “Our goal is to assist fellow developers with funding and marketing expertise, while also helping them establish a solid business. Founding a publishing brand is a passion project for us, and we are very excited to make this a reality.”
The open design of Ghost Ship Games’ own Deep Rock Galactic will serve as a foundation for future titles to be published under the Ghost Ship Publishing label. The company will aim to support developers looking to create games through open communication and with player experience as the central priority.
Ghost Ship Games CCO Mikkel Martin Pedersen added, “Starting a publishing company is a natural next step for Ghost Ship. We love games and the success of Deep Rock Galactic has now enabled us to help other developers create theirs. We can’t wait to get started.”
Ghost Ship Publishing will announce its first upcoming titles on March 2 as part of the Deep Rock Galactic fifth anniversary live stream.
