In an exciting development for the gaming world, the core team of developers from Hopoo Games, the creators of popular titles like DEADBOLT and Risk of Rain, have joined Valve. This move was announced on September 2, 2024, through Hopoo Games’ social media channels.
The team, including key members Duncan and Paul, will now be working directly on Valve’s projects. As a result, Hopoo Games will halt production on their unannounced game, codenamed “Snail,” and cease operations.
Hopoo Games expressed their gratitude towards Valve for their decade-long partnership and shared their excitement about working on new and exciting titles at Valve. They also thanked their fans for their support over the years.
This transition marks the end of an era for Hopoo Games but opens up new possibilities for talented developers as they join forces with one of the biggest names in the gaming industry.
