Last year, Danish entertainment company Nordisk acquired a 30.7% stake in The Dark Pictures and Until Dawn studio.

Copenhagen, Denmark-based Nordisk Games now holds investments in multiple European games companies including full ownership of Just Cause and Mad Max developer Avalanche Studios, and part-ownership of Call of the Sea publisher Raw Fury and Metroid: Samus Returns studio MercurySteam.

Supermassive Games was the ninth addition to the portfolio and is Nordisk Games’ first investment in the UK.

“We are delighted to have Nordisk Games alongside Supermassive for what we are sure will be very exciting times ahead,” said Supermassive CEO Pete Samuels in a prepared statement at the time of the acquisition.

“From the moment Joe and I met with Martin (Walfisz) and Mikkel (Weider), we were convinced that Nordisk would be great partners for us, and we feel privileged to welcome Nordisk Games’ expertise to our Board.”
