New indie retro game publisher Retrovibe set to launch multiple games in 2021

by on June 1, 2021
 

Retrovibe is a brand new publisher focusing on indie games with a new Retro twist.  Retrovibe has announced five titles, as their leading lineup for 2021/2022: Project Warlock II, Janosik 2, and B.I.O.T.A., The Looter, and Shardpunk: Verminfall.  These games are set to be released on PC and console with release dates to be announced.

The new publisher has been founded by Michal Kiciński (co-founder of CD Projekt), Michał Affelski, and Krzysztof Papliński (co-founders of indie publisher Gamingcompany) with the former backing the project and the latter two running the show.

Co-Founder Michal Kiciński had this to say:

“I’ve known the Gamingcompany guys for years and I like their approach to the job. I like retro games, the kind I played when I was a teenager.  These are relatively small projects filled with love and passion – and that struck a chord with me.”

Already launched titles Project Warlock and Janosik have joined the Retrovibe banner. Janosik is currently available for free on Steam and GOG.

You can discover the Retrovibe lineup in this trailer:
