Studio built from ex-Starbreeze devs acquired by Bethesda's parent company, Zenimax...

Fresh off its acquisition of Shinji Mikami's Tango Gameworks studio, Zenimax has splashed its cash again on Swedish developer MachineGames.

The studio was opened for business in 2009 by founding members of Starbreeze Studios, which developed the likes of The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay and The Darkness.

MachineGames is already working on a new title for Zenimax and Bethesda Softworks, which is being built using id Tech 5 following Zenimax's acquisition of id last year.

"Working with our new colleagues at id and the world class publisher, Bethesda Softworks, is a tremendous opportunity," said MachineGames' CEO, Jerk Gustafsson. "MachineGames has assembled a dedicated team that has extensive experience working together to produce quality games. We are excited to create a new AAA title for gamers on id Tech 5 that will push the game development envelope."
