• Comment: As below, I think a little more coverage is needed for this one. Whilst most of the sources are technically fine, to establish notability for WP:CORP there really should be more significant coverage on the studio from secondary, independent reliable sources. Game World Observer comes close, but is considered unreliable generally per WP:VG/S. The GamesRadar source is the only evidence that a mainstream source has done secondary reporting on the studio so far. Is there more out there of this calibre? VRXCES (talk) 07:43, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

History

edit

Fool's Theory has existed as a collective of developers since 2015,[7] but was officially founded in 2018[8] by a group of specialists from major studios. The company's mission is to create story-rich games with RPG enjoyers in mind.[9] Until now, the company has developed two single-player games: Seven: The Days Long Gone and The Thaumaturge[10], the latter gaining positive public reception upon its release.

On October 26th, 2022, CD Projekt RED announced that Fool's Theory will be a developer behind The Witcher Remake.[11]
