Gearbox Entertainment has announced the acquisition of Texas-based tech firm Captured Dimensions. With this move, the company aims to strengthen its internal development capabilities. The duo did not reveal any amount for the agreement.
Captured Dimensions is a full-service mobile 3D scanning company specializing in photogrammetry, lidar, and structured light scanning of humans, objects, and more. The company has been providing services for the film and video game industry for over ten years and has worked on highly popular movies, including Logan, Black Panther, Alita: Battle Angel, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Avatar.
Gearbox Entertainment’s Chief Business Officer, Sean Haran, commented on the recent acquisition:
“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Jordan and his team at Captured Dimensions on several projects over the years. This deal brings a wealth of talent into the Gearbox family in several key areas, and I’m excited to welcome them. This acquisition brings incredible technology into the fold for future projects and enables further expansion of offerings to strategic partners across multiple business units.”
Jordan Williams, President and Founder of Captured Dimensions, added:
“This merger gives us an incredible runway for growth and opportunity. We’re excited to work hand-in-hand with some of the most talented developers around the world and continue providing our best-in-class services to our current clients and new partners. On behalf of the entire team here at Captured Dimensions, I’m looking forward to what we can capture and bring to life as a part of Gearbox.”
Captured Dimensions was founded in 2012 and previously worked with huge names in the game industry, such as Gearbox, 2K, and Activision. Last year, Gearbox expanded to Asia with a new studio in Shanghai and acquired the US-based game developer Lost Boys Interactive.
