New Prague-based dev studio, Warhorse, is ready to rock your RPG world

by Jessica Conditt on Jul 23rd 2011 10:30AM

Four eminent 2K Czech and Bohemia Interactive employees have split to form Warhorse, a new development studio in Prague, and are now working on a previously unannounced RPG. Mafia and Mafia II creator Dan Vávra is heading the team at Warhorse, co-founded with Martin Klíma, author of Dragon's Lair. Viktor Bocan, designer of Operation Flashpoint, and Mafia animator Zbynek Trávnivký complete the fearsome foursome.

Combined, the Warhorse crew's games have sold more than 11 million copies. They are hiring now for work on this mysterious RPG, requesting people who are willing to move to Prague to work with talented, successful, laid-back developers, which we're sure will be nearly impossible to find.

Well they're website static image is awesome, so I'll buy whatever they're selling.

i read Warhorse quite wrong at first.

@That One Guy

there are still advantages to working exclusively on the PC. just look at Blizzard if you want proof of that. also, smaller dev teams (like Warhorse) can't always afford the added costs of developing on multiple platforms. it may seem like a logical move, but it's also an expensive proposition that could potentially sink your new company.
