ZeniMax has picked up yet another talented independent studio.

The target this time was Machinegames a studio founded by former employees who had worked on The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay.

The ex-Starbreeze men included its founder Magnus Hogdahl and veteran lead designer Jerk Gustafsson.

Machinegames joins ZeniMax's already impressive array of studios that includes id Software, Arkane and Shinji Mikami's Tango Gameworks.
