Bizarre Creations Closing This Week
Options
Bizarre Creations is closing its doors for good this Friday after Activision failed to find a buyer for the studio responsible for a string of highly regarded games.
Having brought the Liverpool studio back in 2007 Activision recommended the studio for closure last month. In its time under Activision Bizarre Creations produced two games, the hyper racer Blur and the bespoke Bond game Bloodstone.
Bizarre Creations will perhaps be better remembered for its time under Microsoft where it produced the Project Gotham games, one of the last decade's most revered racing series, as well as the lo-fi Geometry Wars games that were at the forefront of Xbox Live Arcade.
Before that Bizarre Creations produced Metropolis Street Racer on the Dreamcast and a brace of official F1 games for the original PlayStation.
Develop reports that Bizarre Creation's illustrious history is to come to an end on Friday February 18. In just over 20 years the studio created some 20 games, and many are likely to be remembered long after it closes its doors for the last time.
