North Beach Games establishes North Beach Games Prague, announces Stranded Deep 2

North Beach Games has announced the establishment of North Beach Games Prague, a new development studio headquartered in Prague, Czech Republic, to develop survival crafting game sequel Stranded Deep 2.

North Beach Games Prague is led by chief technology officer and survival crafting game designer Sam Edwards, who co-created the original Stranded Deep at Beam Team Games, and general manager Tomas Psenicka, creator of Space Engineers. The core development team will operate primarily on-site at the new studio, while also supporting some staff working remotely around the world.

“We’re super excited to be kicking off the development of Stranded Deep 2 with our new development team, North Beach Games Prague,” said North Beach Games creative director and chief technology officer Sam Edwards in a press release. “Tomas and his talented team will be a great partner to build out the studio as we look to the future of the franchise and explore new horizons.”

North Beach Games CEO John Miller added, “We couldn’t be more excited to bring Sam and Tomas into the North Beach Games fold, heading up our new Prague development studio. We’ve worked with both of them for years as partners, so to all be on the same team is a great feeling and will allow us to do even more exciting work together in the survival crafting space. After all of the volatility in the market and industry for the past year, the time feels right to start this next chapter of our business, carving our own path towards a positive future for our company.”
