Activision starts Elsewhere Entertainment game studio in Poland

Activision is starting Elsewhere Entertainment, a new game studio working on an all-new franchise in Warsaw, Poland.

The new studio team is hard at work creating a brand new narrative-based intellectual property. It’s an internal studio, owned by Activision, which is part of Activision Blizzard and itself part of Microsoft Xbox. And it’s not working on a game in the Call of Duty universe.
