Founded in 2002, we have been creating globally recognised titles for twenty years. The fan-celebrated Sniper Ghost Warrior franchise has sold over 14 million copies worldwide, while the action RPG, Lords of the Fallen, has been enjoyed by over 10 million players across the globe.
Our Hexworks studio is currently working on The Lords of the Fallen, the highly ambitious follow-up to the original 2014 hit. Steering the franchise in a new direction towards dark fantasy, the action role-playing game will feature a fully revised, challenging combat system, and promises to be CI Games' most ambitious project currently in development!
