The company has made a name for itself by obtaining the rights to classic video games which are no longer available, updating them, and then releasing them through digital distribution platforms like Steam. While NightDive Studios may not be a house hold name, the developer has been pretty busy since being formed back in 2013 by designer Stephen Kick.
