According to recent information, Rocksteady founders Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker have founded a new game studio in East London called Hundred Star.

 

 

Rocksteady Studios co-founders Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker have reportedly opened a new game studio. The first news comes from online posts via a website listing a new studio from the former founders of Rocksteady Studios. Although no announcement has been made, the studio is called Hundred Star Games.

Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker are best known for founding Rocksteady Studios in 2004, based in London, England.

The studio’s first game was Urban Chaos: Riot Response in 2006. Even before the critically acclaimed Batman: Arkham series. Under the development team, the series spawned four unique Arkham titles. Now, the studio is working on the new title Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Sumo Digital will carry out the further work. However, Hill and Walker left Rocksteady in 2022, two years after the Suicide Squad game was initially announced.

While Rocksteady is working on the launch of Kill the Justice League, Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker have founded their studio, Hundred Star Games Limited. Polygon reported it when it discovered the new studio via the business intelligence website Endole. Hill and Walker were listed as directors and business leaders.

Hundred Star Games was registered in February 2023, but no other significant information exists except for the broken relationship with Stylus Games.

Furthermore, Hundred Star Games was last listed on the Great Place to Work website in December 2023. Here, readers can better understand what the studio is all about. The team is a 25-employee company with plans to have 100 game industry developers in its ranks. A startup based in East London. According to the company’s overview, the studio aims to create “cutting-edge gaming experiences that inspire and captivate players worldwide.” In addition, there is a Hundred Star Games LinkedIn account that shows very little information.

Basic information such as the year the studio was founded, the company’s size, the type of industry, and the official Hundred Star Games website are all provided, but the rest are left blank.

For now, little is known about the projects the development team may work on. Interested fans can apply for membership on the studio’s official website. Membership is a golden tab that opens two posts: Jobs and Information. Clicking on any will generate an email response that fans can fill out. But information is relatively scarce. It’s unclear what projects the new studio might be working on, as it hasn’t made an official announcement. Regardless, it’s exciting to see Hill and Walker working with Hundred Star Games after leaving the studio responsible for the Batman: Arkham games.
