Amazon acquires Double Helix, the games studio behind the latest Killer Instinct
2/6/2014 2:52:00 AM
Leaked through a joint recruiting event between Amazon and Double Helix, Amazon has acquired the games studio, reportedly in a bid to grab both talent and IP. The studio is best known for its Killer Instinct remake, although it also includes less luminary titles like G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. (It's worth noting that Killer Instinct will be published by Microsoft Studios as an Xbox One exclusive.) Incoming games include a remake of Strider -- a series that first made its debut back in 1989. Amazon released a statement confirming the deal:
The announcement adds extra weight to recent rumors that Amazon might even get into the games console business -- it certainly doesn't hurt them."Amazon has acquired Double Helix as part of our ongoing commitment to build innovate games for customers."
