Rebellion has snapped up Ignition's Banbury dev studio, formerly known as Awesome Developments, which was responsible for puzzle game Archer Maclean's Mercury on PSP.
Whether the Ignition Banbury will continue to work with the PSP platform at Rebellion is unknown. Rebellion wouldn't spill any beans when contacted earlier, only saying that it's currently working on "three major projects" in connection with "large publishers".
"This acquisition takes the Rebellion headcount to 280 full time members of staff. We're fully booked with work until later in the year so these additional highly talented staff will be a valuable addition to the team", Rebellion's CEO and creative director Jason Kingsley has added.
