Description

Way North Studios is a small, independent game developer studio based in Giske, Norway. They are currently developing an online roleplaying game - The Tavern - for the PC, Mac and Linux platforms.

History

Early history

Way North Studios AS was co-founded in May 2013 by Geir Ove "Xoduz/Xuri" Alnes and Are Blindheim. They decided to create their own game development studio after Geir Ove finished a 5-year long stint with the Norwegian game developer Funcom, where he was involved in the development of their MMORPG titles Age of Conan and The Secret World. Are, the other co-founder, has a background in team management and marketing.

Current history

Since their founding, the team at Way North Studios has been working on their first game, an online (rogue-like-like) roleplaying game called The Tavern, which mixes single-player adventuring with multiplayer interaction in social hubs - taverns. A release date for The Tavern has not yet been set.
