Several former employees of MicroProse have announced the formation of Thriller Publishing, a company with a focus on military and espionage-themed games.
Thriller Publishing's senior management is led by industry veterans J.W. Stealey, Fred Schmidt and Jim Bull, all of whom served together at MicroProse. The new company will set up shop in Austin, Texas.
MicroProse was a legendary PC development house founded by Sid Meier and perhaps best known for spawning the Civilization and X-COM series of games. It spanned 19 years of operation before it was acquired and later dismantled by publisher Infogrames.
The Company intends to establish itself a premier brand for military and espionage-themed AAA storyline games across all retail and online game platforms including PC, new-gen consoles, mobile and massively multiplayer (MMOG). |

Well, Microprose is/was one of my favorites publishers and I'm curious to see what games will this new company publish.
Hopefully something interesting and innovative.
