90s studio Artex resurrects as an indie game publisher

Artex today launched as a new indie publishing label, that aims to support smaller titles and developers in the start-up phase. The new publisher uses the name and some of the original talent of an older studio: Artex Entertainment, the developer of multiple PC games in the 90s.

Artex launched multiple games between 1997-99, including the strategy game Exodus and adventure game Ankh: The Tales of Mystery. The core team at the studio later became Trigger Lab, and then Deck 13. The newly revived Artex includes several industry veterans, including at least person from Deck 13, bringing the studio full circle.
