An inside look at the Amazon Games hit New World |
Amazon Games' New World launched in September 2021 to critical acclaim. It quickly achieved a milestone of more than 900,000 peak concurrent players, making it one of the most-played games in Steam's history at the time. Shortly after New World's first anniversary, it received its biggest content update yet: Brimstone Sands, an expansive, desert-themed zone featuring new enemies, a new territory, and all-new stories. Amazon Games continued its momentum with Lost Ark in 2022, and it will publish both Blue Protocol and the next installment of the Tomb Raider franchise. It's all part of an effort that started in 2014, when Amazon acquired Double Helix Games, the foundation for the Amazon Games studio in Orange County, California. Meet the developers who have made these hit games a reality. |
