We look forward to many years of growth and shared lessons as we enter this new chapter with the talented team at Offworld.”

Ceraldi added: "We see the purchase of Redstone Interactive as the natural evolution of our continued close partnership with the studio. Beyond the Wire is a gorgeous game made by a passionate team and we are happy to be adding it to our line-up while continuing to both support the ongoing development of the title and further success of the team.”

Beyond the Wire launched in October 2020 in Early Access on Steam.
