Our take
Splash Damage is a game development company best known for its work on Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition and the PC version of Halo: The Master Chief Collection.
The company is committed to diversity and inclusion, partnering with D&I companies such as POC In Play, Out Making Games, Industry Gayming, and Queer in Games.
While Splash Damage was acquired by the multimedia company Tencent in 2020, the company has since retained its independence and even started its own acquisition portfolio through the purchase of Bulkhead Interactive. Operating as an independent entity within the Tencent family, its focus going forward is on creating an original sci-fi-based game.
