CD Projekt Red and the Polish government have teamed up to form a €18 million (R300 million) fund to help bolster local European game developers.
The fund will primarily be used to help with “industrial research and experimental development or experimental development only”, reported GamesBeat.
Developers must also currently be working with a budget of between 0.5 million zloty (R194,000) to 20 million zloty (R78,000,000) and a timeline of up to three years.
“2014’s Polish Games Treaty initiative was the starting point of our common effort to achieve better economical conditions enabling the local industry to make higher quality games,” said Stan Just, R&D manager at CD Projekt Red.
“We wanted to catch up with booming gaming markets in [the US] or Canada, which are offering a wide range of financial support instruments to nurture the sector.”
