Twee maanden geleden kwamen we met het nieuws dat de Belgische ontwikkelaar Grin er de brui aan gaf. Hun spel Woolfe: The Redhood Diaries was simpelweg niet goed genoeg en ze besloten dan ook om het IP te koop aan te bieden.
Lang heeft het niet geduurd voordat geďnteresseerden zich melden en vandaag maakt Rebellion bekend dat zij zich de nieuwe eigenaar van het IP mogen noemen. De gehele verklaring van het bedrijf is te lezen op purl=https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/45588301/woolfe-the-red-hood-diaries/posts/1389243]de Kickstarter pagina[/url], maar hieronder een citaat:

Dear Kickstarter backers and owners of Woolfe – The Red Hood Diaries
In August, GRIN’s founder Wim Wouters wrote a brave and searingly honest statement about the sad closure of the studio and the end of Woolfe as they knew it. If you missed this, then we highly recommend you read Wim’s post before continuing. But in summary, GRIN was unable to continue as a business and had to apply for bankruptcy, and so Woolfe (and everything related to the game) was put up for sale at auction.
It has been a difficult time for those involved with Woolfe and for you, the backers, but today we’re writing to tell you that Woolfe is still alive, and now in the hands of a new owner, Rebellion – that’s us! We’re delighted to add Woolfe’s gorgeous, twisted universe to our burgeoning list of indie games and we hope you’ll join us for the ride.
You’re still probably wondering what this all means. Where does this leave backers? What’s the future of Woolfe? Who are Rebellion anyway?
We’ve tried to answer all your questions below so please take time to read our responses if you can, and if you can’t find an answer to your question then feel free to get in touch with us at woolfe.support@rebellion.co.uk, or hit us up at @Rebellion on Twitter!
Jason and Chris Kingsley, Co-founders and owners of Rebellion.
