The Mustards dish on Shadow Complex Remastered and working with J.J. Abrams on Spyjinx

Chair Entertainment has been busy since it concluded its 50-million-download Infinity Blade mobile game series in 2014. Chair, a division of Epic Games, has just published Shadow Complex Remastered on the Xbox One and is prepping the title for the PlayStation 4 and Steam. It is also working on its Spyjinx game with Bad Robot Interactive, a company created by Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams.

Chair Entertainment is known for its high-end mobile graphics that make full use of the Unreal Engine. By remastering Shadow Complex, which debuted originally in 2009, the studio was able to add a bunch of graphical enhancements and new kinds of melee play to a fan favorite from the Xbox Live Arcade. Chair was founded by Donald and Geremy Mustard in 2005, and it was acquired by Epic Games in 2008. Its Infinity Blade series was one of the most successful in mobile gaming history, but the team concluded the story in the third version and wanted to move on to new things.
