Despite Crytek deciding to shut down five studios outside Kiev and Frankfurt, one of them managed to escape the Yerli brothers and continue game development as an independent team.

Crytek Black Sea, known for their MOBAs, started their escape plan back in November, and the results are now visible: Black Sea Games (which was this studio’s name between 2001 and 2008 when Crytek bought them) is revived. The boss is going to be Vesselin Handjiev, who was the founder in 2001, and he also served as managing director under Crytek until September.

The developers of Knights of Honor, Arena of Fate, and Worldshift are already working on a new, unannounced game, with the goal of creating hardcore games. Good luck to them!
