War games specialist Slitherine has bought Battlefront, the maker of the Combat Mission series of titles.
No figure has been put on the deal. Slitherine says that this acquisition means good news for the Combat Mission franchise thanks to its increased resources and expertise in the genre.
The Combat Mission series debuted 25 years ago and has sold over one million copies across 20 different entries.
“We are thrilled to welcome the Battlefront team into the Slitherine family,” Slitherine chief Iain McNeil said.
“Their expertise and passion for wargaming are unparalleled, and together, we will continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in this genre. Our goal is to not only preserve the legacy of Combat Mission but to elevate it to new heights.”
Battlefront co-founder Stephen Grammont added: “We are excited to join forces with Slitherine. Their vision for the future of wargaming aligns perfectly with ours, and we are confident that together we can achieve great things.
