“We founded Shiro Games with the goal of creating the video games we would like to play, and we have followed that path since the beginning. During a decade, we have created our own franchises from the ground up including Evoland, Northgard, and Wartales, and worked with renowned partners in the industry on projects such as Dune: Spice Wars. We’re already working on two new games, our talented teams are growing, and we are ready to keep this creative mission alive in the years to come”.
