IR Gurus are currently working on the next installment to Red Mile's Heroes franchise, Heroes Over Europe, which will be released on, as yet, unannounced next-generation consoles. At this stage, it is also expected that the CEO of IR Gurus, Mike Fegan, will remain with the company as well as oversee Red Mile's international publishing operations
“With the expected acquisition of IR Gurus, we will own our first globally recognized original IP franchise and acquire a very talented video game development studio,” said Chester Aldridge, Chairman and CEO of Red Mile. “The synergies of this combination are significant, as we expect to secure high-quality and scarce development resources for our franchise titles and improve cost control by bringing development in-house.”
“We have enjoyed a strong relationship with Red Mile for several years,” said Mike Fegan, CEO of IR Gurus. “Red Mile was an early believer in our studio and our Heroes of the Pacific title. We are extremely happy to join an emerging publisher like Red Mile and assist them as they build a portfolio of world-class franchises.”
“IR Gurus is a studio full of talented, technically proficient and creative people - qualities that are essential for top-tier development,” said Glenn Wong, President and COO of Red Mile. “With an impressive track record for developing multiple titles across several platforms, we expect that IR Gurus will bring us a powerhouse team to develop our franchise titles.”
