Sacred Veterans Form New Studio
by Chris Faylor, Jun 18, 2009 4:40pm PDTGerman publisher Kalypso Media has acquired a "majority of licenses and assets" from bankrupt developer Ascaron and formed a studio with 15 members of its former staff.
No details on the projects underway at the new studio, Gaming Minds, were provided. Kalypso global managing director Stefan Marcinek said that the new studio will provide the company with "greater independence in our games development."
Kalypso now owns the rights to several former Ascaron brands, including DarkStar One, The Patrician and Port Royale and On the Ball, with The Patrician III due out this summer. The name of the economic sim sequel will inevitably lead to some confusion, as in 2003, an English bundle of Patrician II and its expansion were released as The Patrician III.
The fate of Ascaron's action-RPG series Sacred is unclear, with Kalypso noting that "a few existing license agreements held by Ascaron UK will stay with the Ascaron until expiration." Previously, Ascaron had been working on a Sacred 2 add-on and Sacred 3.

Studio 2 (subsidiary company of Ascaron) has the license for Sacred 2 and the devs will continue working at the Addon as they did before.
Kalypso and the other devs will do something different with the old licenses they bought. I really wish them good luck with that, they deserve it.
In a nutshell, the Add-on is not affected by anything and will come as planned.
The add-on is not affected in any way. I don't know for Sacred 3.
