Team 17, publisher and developer of classics including the Worms series, has acquired Yippee Entertainment. Yippee is currently working on an HD remaster of Commandos 2 for Kalypso, who recently established an in-house studio to create a Commandos game for next-gen consoles, including the PlayStation 5. While Yippee will be finishing their work on Commandos 2 HD first, the studio?s plan is to work on original IPs for Team 17 afterwords.
According to Team 17, it acquired Yippee for £1.4 million. Of that, £922,407 will be paid in cash, while the rest will be in shares. Yippee won?t be losing or gaining any new team members, with the entire team and CEO still being around to work on any future projects. There?s no current word on what exactly Yippee will be working on for Team 17, but if it makes its way to the PlayStation then there?s a good chance we?ll be keeping an eye on it.
