PQube :

London, UK – September 20, 2024*

  Today marks a momentous occasion for PQube, as we're celebrating the 15th Anniversary of publishing and developing memorable and inspiring video games. Since its inception in 2009, PQube has been at the forefront of delivering unique, story-driven, thematically original, and visually stunning games across multiple platforms. The company has cultivated a passionate fan base worldwide while supporting developers of all sizes to release over 100 games across all major platforms.


To celebrate this momentous occasion, PQube have launched its biggest ever Steam Sale, live now until September 26th, offering discounts of up to 95% on award-winning and top-selling games.

  Over the past 15 years, PQube has not only become known for its impressive portfolio but also for supporting indie developers and bringing innovative and culturally diverse games to a global audience. Titles like ‘Tormented Souls’, ‘Potion Permit’, ‘Gal*Gun’, ‘BlazBlue’, ‘White Day’, ‘Arcade Spirits’ and ‘Steins;Gate’ have become fan-favourites, amassing critical acclaim and chart-topping sales. 

  "Reaching this milestone is truly a testament to the incredible support from our fans and partners over the years" said PQube CEO, Dave Pain. "From the outset we have aimed to be an innovative and inclusive publisher, fueled by a team of passionate gamers that share our vision.  We've grown into a company that champions creativity and innovation, giving developers of all sizes a global platform for their games. We take great pride in delivering immersive and original gaming experiences that resonate with players of all backgrounds and championing developers from diverse backgrounds."

 

A Legacy of Success
  Over the years, PQube has built a reputation for identifying and nurturing standout indie titles, bringing niche games to the mainstream, and cultivating a loyal community of gamers. The success of Potion Permit, with a unique spin to the wholesome life-sim' genre, saw the game receive widespread acclaim for its vibrant world and intuitive gameplay, selling over 1 million copies globally. The horror title ‘Tormented Souls’ quickly became a cult classic, praised for its throwback to the golden era of survival horror.

  Meanwhile, Arcade Spirits achieved success due to its engaging narrative and diverse cast of characters, offering players a refreshing and inclusive experience that resonated with a wide audience by celebrating different backgrounds, identities, and relationships within the vibrant world of gaming cultures. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School through its atmospheric horror, intense puzzle-solving gameplay, and its ability to evoke genuine fear, made it a cult classic that resonated with fans of psychological horror and survival games. ‘Gal*Gun’ continues to push boundaries with its distinct, quirky style, and the ‘BlazBlue’ fighting series has firmly cemented itself as a cornerstone of the competitive fighting game scene. ‘Steins;Gate’, a gripping sci-fi mystery visual novel, brought a compelling narrative to Western audiences, and helped kick-start the popularity of visual novels outside Japan.
 

  Looking Ahead As PQube marks this milestone, the company is more committed than ever to expanding its library of diverse and inclusive games, with a strong emphasis on collaboration with indie developers and storytellers from across the globe. With upcoming releases and exciting new partnerships in the pipeline, the future looks bright for PQube and its dedicated community.
PQube also recently celebrated the success of its first major own-IP launch in ‘Republic of Pirates’ and continues to build its portfolio of own-IP titles.

  "Our future vision is to enhance the quality and diversity of our published games by becoming more actively involved from the concept stage, collaborating closely with developers to help them create the best possible experience” added Pain. "The gaming industry is evolving rapidly, and we’re excited to continue to grow as a major challenger. We’re dedicated to ensuring that PQube remains synonymous with creativity, passion, and inclusivity for years to come."

  Titles announced for 2025 and onwards include Tormented Souls 2, Discounty, Resistor, Bustafellows 2 and many more. “We’re gearing up for our biggest ever year in 2025 and we’re continuing to branch out into new areas, it’s a very exciting time!” commented Pain.
