Dying Light studio Techland turns success into a game publishing business

One of the best game developers around is expanding its operations into the publishing business.

Techland, the Polish studio responsible for the excellent Dying Light, is transforming into Techland Publishing, with the goal of bringing more games to the global market. The company is best known for producing the early Dead Island games, Call of Juarez, and Dying Light, but now it also wants to start publishing other developers’ games as well. The company is one of a handful of successful developer based in Central and Eastern Europe along with CD Projekt Red and Crytek. Gaming is a $99.6 billion industry worldwide, and Techland could peel off a chunk of that for itself if it finds success with its new model.
