Wales Interactive Limited is a Welsh independent video game developer and publisher established in 2011 and based in Pencoed, Wales. The studio, best known for Soul Axiom, The Bunker, Master Reboot and Late Shift, have published over 20 video game titles across 10 platforms and have won a BAFTA Cymru Games Award and a MCV Indie Games Label 2017 nomination. The studio supports PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Wii U and Microsoft Windows as well as all the latest virtual reality devices including HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and PlayStation VR. Wales Interactive develop and publish their own original IP as well as third-party titles.[2][3][4] Wales is noted for being part of the mid-2010s revival of the genre of FMV games, i.e. their titles The Bunker and Late Shift which both substitute cutscenes with live action footage.

History

The company was formed in 2012 by co-founders David Banner and Richard Pring. Both founders previously co-managed GamesLab Wales together under University of Glamorgan (now University of South Wales).[5] David Banner, a former employee of Pivotal Games and Eidos Interactive, also founded the Wales Games Development Show.[6] Wales Interactive was formed with an aim to create original games that entertain the world as well as put Wales on the video games map.[7] The studio began and remains as a tenant of the Sony UK Technology Centre in Pencoed, Bridgend.[8][9]

Most of Wales Interactive's early work consisted of mobile apps and games as well as a series of Welsh e-books which were supported by S4C's digital fund.[10] In 2013, they shifted development to focus on PC and consoles with their title, Gravity Badgers, and the psychological horror, Master Reboot.[11][12][13] The development team then released Infinity Runner with Oculus Rift support, a first for the company. Infinity Runner went on to being the first ever PlayStation 4 and Xbox One game to be made entirely in Wales.[14][15] The studio gained a major publication feature in a studio profile for Edge (magazine) which coincided with the Early access development stages of their Science fiction Adventure game, Soul Axiom.[16][17]

In 2015, Wales Interactive established their third-party publishing label. They partnered with UK independent developers, Milky Tea, to bring their title, Coffin Dodgers, to Xbox One and PlayStation 4.[18] Since then, the studio continues to develop their label by co-developing and publishing the FMV horror video game, The Bunker.[19][20]
