North Beach Games Opens New Studio in Prague for Stranded Deep 2 Development

In a significant move within the gaming industry, North Beach Games has unveiled its latest venture with the establishment of a new studio in the heart of Prague. This creatively named entity, North Beach Games Prague, is set to embark on an exciting journey under the leadership of two seasoned professionals: Sam Edwards, the chief technology officer of Beam Team Games, known for the popular title Stranded Deep, and Tomáš Pšenička from Keen Software.

New Beginnings in Game Development

The Prague studio is poised to focus its efforts on the much-anticipated Stranded Deep 2. Sam Edwards expressed his enthusiasm about this new chapter, stating, “We’re super excited to be kicking off the development of Stranded Deep 2 with our new development team, North Beach Games Prague. Tomáš and his talented team will be a great partner to build out the studio as we look to the future of the franchise and explore new horizons.”

John Miller, CEO of North Beach Games, echoed this sentiment, highlighting the long-standing collaboration with both Edwards and Pšenička. “We couldn’t be more excited to bring Sam and Tomáš into the North Beach Games fold, heading up our new Prague development studio. We’ve worked with both of them for years as partners, so to all be on the same team is a great feeling and will allow us to do even more exciting work together in the survival crafting space.”

With the gaming landscape experiencing considerable fluctuations over the past year, Miller noted that the timing for this new initiative feels particularly opportune. “After all of the volatility in the market and industry for the past year, the time feels right to start this next chapter of our business, carving our own path towards a positive future for our company.”
