Circle Studio was a video game developer located in Derby, United Kingdom.[1]
The company was founded in October 2003 by a group of former employees at Core Design, a studio owned by Eidos Interactive. The founding employees of the new company, led by Jeremy Heath-Smith and Adrian Smith,[2] had a significant role in the Tomb Raider series, which was Core Design's best known creation.
In 2005, Circle Studio finished working on a title called Without Warning, a third-person shooter for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.[3] It was published by Capcom. The game was generally poorly received, and after releasing it, Circle Studio began making and publishing DVD games[4] rather than video games.
The company was liquidated in February 2007, after having released a total of 9 DVD games and 1 video game.
