Aspyr Media to Acquire Beamdog

Today Aspyr Media has entered into an agreement to acquire the video game studio Beamdog. Best known for bringing Dungeons & Dragons role-playing games like Baldur’s Gate and Planescape: Torment to PC and consoles, Beamdog will operate as an independent studio within Aspyr.

The two companies will collaborate closely on Beamdog’s newly revealed MythForce, which Aspyr will publish as an early access title via the Epic Games Store on April 20th. Inspired by ‘80s cartoon franchises like Thundercats and He-Man, MythForce unites swords and sorcery with first-person combat in a roguelite adventure.
