The leadership at Wolfeye Studios features RaphaÃ«l Colantonio and Julien Roby, two big names in the immersive sim genre, thanks to their amazing work on games like Dishonored and Prey (2017). They've got a solid team backing them up, including folks who worked with them at Arkane as well as other talented developers with experience on hits like Dark Messiah, Pentiment, and the Assassin's Creed series. Right now, they're all focused on creating the next epic RPG for PC and consoles.

Wolfeye Studios was founded in 2019 by RaphaÃ«l Colantonio (previous founder of Arkane). Their first title Weird West, which came out in 2022, was a bit of a cult hit combining top-down action RPG mechanics with the immersive sim style the devs are most known for. Now the studio have teamed up with Neowiz for their second title; a retro sci-fi first person ARPG that has yet to be named.

What they have shared is a series of concept art from the game, that seem to blend a bit of the wild west aesthetic with retro futurist, art deco style with a little splash of steam punk too.

Seungchul Kim, (co-CEO, NEOWIZ) said of the project;

"Partnering with a studio brimming with incredible talent at Wolfeye is a timely and strategic fit for us. This collaboration reaffirms our commitment to delivering remarkable story-driven games that resonate with gamers worldwide on PC and console platforms."

This sentiment of collaboration is shared by the devs too;

“We have a burning passion for making a very specific type of game that blends RPG, action and simulation,” says Raf Colantonio, Creative Director and President, Wolfeye Studios. “These games can only be successful when the publisher shares that same passion."Â Â

"With NEOWIZ, we found a partner that truly understands our vision and is as committed as we are to delivering a unique, creative and memorable game experience that will appeal both to our long-term fans and new players alike,” said Julien Roby, CEO and Executive Producer, Wolfeye Studios.
