Tencent Becomes Minority Investor in Poland’s The Parasight

Agreement supports Polish studio for long-term growth and development

The Parasight announced that Tencent has become the studio’s latest minority investor, bringing with it a global support system and resources to help the Polish studio grow.

The Parasight will maintain full creative and operational autonomy, including for projects, talent, publishing rights and IP ownership. The Parasight is currently working on Blacktail, a first-person action-adventure title about the Slavic myth of the Baba Yaga.

“I’m excited for everything the future holds for this partnership. With this, The Parasight joins the ranks of top-tier developers who have Tencent’s backing,” said Bartosz Kaproń, CEO & Creative Director. “We are an experienced team, but a young studio. Having Tencent, with its experience and vast technological background invest in our vision, BLACKTAIL and future projects shows incredible faith in our team, and we aim to honor that trust.

“In two years, we’ve tripled our dev team and built a brand new IP from scratch. Our first franchise, only months ahead of launch, is attracting attention from all over the industry. We’re aspiring for BLACKTAIL to be one of 2022’s most creative, next-gen, premium indie experiences. This is still the beginning of our journey.”

The Parasight, founded in 2019, is a 20+ strong team of experienced developers who share a passion for creating wonderfully unsettling games based on dark legends and fairy tales.
