GamingBolt highlighted the figure, while AUTOMATON described the rebound as a bounce back to profitability. During that same period the studio confirmed it is developing a brand‑new fighting‑game IP, a project that began a few months earlier and has received limited visibility.
KitGuru reported the upcoming property, and EventHubs noted it slipped under the radar. The new title is now under active development, positioning the company for a fresh entry into the fighting‑game market and potentially expanding its portfolio beyond existing franchises.
The recent profitability gives the studio financial breathing room to invest in the new project.
