The History of Visceral Games

Mon, 18 May 2009 00:00:00 GMT

Over the years our talent and experience grew, as the studio's focus shifted away from EA owned IP and towards licensed action titles like James Bond, Lord of the Rings, The Simpsons and more, we learned a great deal about what makes a good action game, and the desire to turn our own ideas in to intense action games grew. With games like Dead Space, Dead Space Extraction and Dante’s Inferno, we feel Visceral Games is a return to an older identity and a realization of our future.

In this portion of the site we hope to share some stories from the history of the studio that demonstrate the rich legacy, the incredible talent and the continuing dream of this team. We welcome your thoughts, pictures, input and what can help us create even better games. We want to hear from you.

Redwood Shores Studio, EA's longest running studio, is changing its name to Visceral Games. In the last two years, the studio has adopted a new identity as we've committed ourselves to a new set of development principles and game design values. We make intense, top quality games that push the boundaries of action entertainment. The name change represents who we are and what we believe games should be. Dead Space, Dead Space: Extraction, Dante's Inferno and other concepts in the pipeline illustrate where the studio's expertise and passion lay.

We are extremely proud of the EA Redwood Shores Studio legacy. The name change to Visceral Games is just the next step in the evolving story of EA's studios. We are not abandoning our past but embracing the future. With an obsessive focus on excellence and a relentless commitment to intense action, Visceral Games is set to execute all future games at the quality, innovation and polish of Dead Space. This is just the beginning. Join us as we forge ahead.

This web site is designed for you. Your feedback helps shape who we are, so we want to hear from you. Our goal with this web site is to reach out and create a two way dialogue with our community and fans. The web site is still under construction but we have big plans for it. So come back often and talk to us. We're listening.

Visceral Games: It's in our blood!
