Recent Project Updates

Festival of Gup

Celebrating 10 years of Risk of Rain! The Festival of Gup showcases all the past success of the franchise, but also what we have in store for the future! We give a behind the scenes look at the making of Risk of Rain Returns and Risk of Rain 2 along with the newest DLC - Seekers of the Storm.

Red Bull Wololo Legacy

The Red Bull Wololo Legacy event is coming back for the sixth tournament. This is an extra special event because it's on the 25th anniversary of Age of Empires where we are going all out this year! Did someone say castle in Germany? It's amazing to see Age ii still having a lively community and competitive scene, and this Esports event is one for the Ages! (Sorry I'm terrible with puns.) Interested to learn more? You can read more here: https://www.redbull.com/int-en/events/red-bull-wololo-legacy/


**Fun fact tickets sold out really fast, I swear I posted on Twitter and they were gone!

Age of Empires Updates

I currently help stage Age of Empires patch notes and updates. If you're a fan of Age of Empires and want to stay up to date on what is happening with the franchise and what new updates are coming, our patch notes are a great way to stay informed. You can read the patch notes either via our blog or Steam.
