#Prime matter payday 3 series
Today, the publisher announced 13 games that will be released under the new label, including Starbreeze Studios' Payday 3, a Switch version of Warhorse Studios' Kingdom Come Deliverance, a real-time strategy spin-off of hugely popular South Korea-developed shooter Crossfire, and the next Painkiller game - reviving the series after a nine-year absence. Support for PR, marketing, business development, community management and more will be available from Koch's headquarters in Germany, where Prime Matter will be based. While Prime Matter will have its own dedicated team - 25 to 30 people, "about the same size as Deep Silver," according to Kundratitz - the division will benefit from the shared resources of its parent, as do the other labels. "We believe it's better to do that by having a separate entity for products than to try and push everything through existing labels." "We believe that we need to make sure we cater for an increasing amount of content, of studios, and we want to be correctly set up to scale the publishing organisation," he says.
While Koch already has this range of publishing businesses through which it can release new games, CEO Klemens Kundratitz says this launch is "in line with our growth strategy to become a truly global publisher." It will operate alongside the publisher's established labels including Deep Silver, Milestone, Ravenscourt and Vertigo. The new venture was unveiled during tonight's Summer Games Fest Kickoff Live, one of the many events running alongside this year's digital-only E3. Koch Media is further expanding its publishing business with a new label that seeks to increase its global appeal: Prime Matter.
