Relic Entertainment Charts a New Path with Smaller Projects and Classic Revivals

The independent studio plans to support existing titles, explore smaller-scale games, and reimagine classic franchises after its split from Sega.

Relic Entertainment, now independent following its 2024 split from Sega, has announced a three-pillar strategy to guide its future development.
The studio will continue supporting major titles like Company of Heroes 3 with significant updates and new downloadable content, including the Fire & Steel DLC launching this year.
Relic aims to develop and release smaller, experimental in-house games within 1-2 years, allowing for faster turnaround and diversification beyond traditional RTS titles.
Plans to reimagine classic games through remasters, re-releases, or new projects that capture the spirit of the originals are under consideration, though specific titles remain unconfirmed.
The studio, backed by Emona Capital LLP, has streamlined operations and reduced staff but claims to be on stronger financial footing, focusing on sustainable growth and community engagement.
