Amplitude Co-Founder Starts New Studio, Working On Tactical RPG

by Rainier on Nov. 26, 2018 @ 3:00 p.m. PST

Mathieu Girard announced today the creation of a new video game development and publishing studio, Tactical Adventures.

Located in Paris, France, the new team is made up of passionate industry veterans from both independent studios and major publishers. As fans of board games and RPGs, their first project will be the realization of a dream, that of the tactical role playing game they have always wanted to play.

The objective of the studio is to reproduce the sensations of a real role-playing game on screen by offering a faithful adaptation of the rules and the universe specific to the genre. Tactical Adventures has therefore the ambition to deeply advance the mechanics of CRPG (Computer Role Playing Game) through technical innovations and new gameplay mechanics brought to the three main aspects of the genre: combat, exploration and storytelling.

"When I decided to leave Amplitude Studios for new adventures, it was obvious to me that I needed to make my oldest dream come true and develop the deepest, most immersive and most accessible tactical RPG." explains Mathieu Girard.

Mathieu Girard is passionate about video games and their creation since his childhood. Engineer by training, he climbed the ladder to become a project manager and an entrepreneur. In 2011, he co-founded Amplitude Studios in Paris, which was sold four years later to the SEGA group. During his career, Mathieu has launched 11 major games, 4 of which sold more than one million copies.
