About Starbreeze Studios

Starbreeze Studios is a game development company with headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden. Starbreeze AB is publicly traded on Aktietorget in Sweden. We build games from our own design and always strive to establish franchises that can be branched off into other markets. We live and die by gameplay and we are becoming a pioneer when it comes to launching large productions online. During E3 2015, Starbreeze Studios announced that they had entered the hardware business with Project StarVR, a virtual reality headset, which is currently under development by InfinitEye, a firm acquired by Starbreeze.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
2013

Brothers is presented from a third-person view overlooking the two brothers. The brothers are moved individually by two thumbsticks on the controller. The controller triggers also cause the respective brother to interact with the game world, such as talking to a non-player character or grabbing onto a ledge or object. The older brother is the stronger of the two and can pull levers or boost his younger brother to higher spaces, while the younger one can pass between narrow bars. The player progresses by manipulating the two brothers at the same time to complete various puzzles, often requiring the player to manipulate both brothers to perform differing functions (such as one distracting a hostile non-player character while the other makes their way around). Should either brother fall from a great height or get injured, the game restarts at a recent checkpoint. All of the in-game dialogue is spoken in a fictional language, thus the story is conveyed through actions, gestures and expressions.
