Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 314: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Sumo Digital Ltd. is an independent game development studio based in Sheffield, United Kingdom. Set up in 2003 following the closure of Infogrames Studios Sheffield/Gremlin Interactive.[1][2] Sumo currently employs more than 270 development staff,[3] many of whom had previously worked together at Infogrames and Gremlin.[4]

History

The company was formed in 2003 by Carl Cavers, Paul Porter, Darren Mills and James North-Hearn, mostly former members of Gremlin. Carl Cavers joined Gremlin in 1995 as a Quality and Systems Manager, becoming Studio Manager in 1998. Paul Porter wrote the low-level code for the Broken Sword series on PC and Playstation before joining Gremlin in 1997 to work in R&D. Darren Mills was a Cameraman and Editor for the BBC, ITV and Sky Sports before joining Gremlin in 1995 as Lead Artist, later becoming Studio Art Director at Infogrames Sheffield House.[5] The Infogrames Sheffield Studio itself was originally Gremlin Interactive, prior to Infogrames acquiring the company in 1999.[6]

On 17 August 2007, Sumo Digital was acquired by Foundation 9 Entertainment,[7] and joined Foundation 9's collection of independent studios.[8] However on 11 November 2014 the executive team completed a management buyout, gaining independence from Foundation 9 Entertainment.[9]

Several staff members from now-defunct game studios Bizarre Creations and Black Rock Studio are confirmed to be working for Sumo Digital.[10]
