Square Enix Offering Eidos IPs To Indie Developers

by Rainier on Feb. 17, 2015 @ 3:14 p.m. PST

Square Enix are offering the first three Eidos IPs for independent developers to pitch on in the shape of Gex, Fear Effect and Anachronox.

New project pitch submissions are reopening today for the first time since closing a few days into 2015, due to high demand – and for the first time developers will be able to submit game ideas for projects set in the Gex, Fear Effect or Anachronox worlds.

“I’m excited to see what talented teams might do with any one of Gex, Fear Effect or Anachronox IPs. We’ll monitor the response carefully before deciding which IPs to release next,” said Phil Elliott, project lead on Collective. “And it goes without saying that we’re delighted for the whole Goetia team, as they become the latest member of the Collective family alongside Moon Hunters and Black the Fall in hitting their funding targets.

“We first announced we’d be opening up Eidos IPs for developers to pitch on, with our initial announcement of Collective in November 2013. Since then we’ve worked hard to establish the Collective platform as a viable place for small teams to build awareness for their ideas, and then for the community to feedback – and vote on those projects they’d potentially back through crowdfunding.”
