Avalanche Studios have spent years trying and sometimes succeeding to bring an “awesome dumb fun” revolution to the current generation. After two back-to-back iterations of the Just Cause series, it’s a surprise then that the team at Avalanche truly hit their stride with the downloadable (and generically named) Renegade Ops.
After six months of negotiating, Avalanche Studios staff have successfully unionized with a new two-year collective bargaining agreement.
Avalanche Studios co-founder has revealed new information about the canceled Iron Man game that was in development for two years.
Damn ... now that he mentioned it, Avalanche would've done an interesting job with an Iron-Man open world project.
Yes but the story would have sucked because none of their games have even a decent story and their games always have performance issues
They don't have the best writers, but they know how to make an enjoyable and engaging open world game.
They feel a lot like Obsidian back in the day. Great developer that's always scraping by and constantly getting screwed by publishers.
Well the most enjoyable part of just cause for me was the jet suit in 3. Played exclusively with it.
Stuff like this just happens. This game was cancelled, there was a Superman game that was cancelled, Justice League, Flash game, 2 Batman games, Avengers game, Daredevil game, Spider-Man 4, Marvel Universe Online, etc etc.
I don't doubt that there will be more in the future cancelled. And more future super hero games released that will be great.
From Gematsu: "Elemental Games, a Stockholm-based studio formed in August 2021 by founding members of Avalanche Studios including co-founders Linus and Viktor Blomberg, has officially announced its establishment.
The studio, which is privately held, has a mission to create “high-quality open-world experiences from a creatively and financially independent position.” Its first title, an original intellectual property, is currently in development."
We'll see what comes from this.
Always considered them a middle of the road developer.
Avalanche always made fun games, just nothing truly impressive.
I agree they are the definition of 7.5-8/10. And their post launch support in the past has sucked when it comes to patches needed to fix known issues
