Humanity’s first contact with tiny quasi-intelligent robots felt fresh and believable to the video game producer Marek Markuszewski as he devoured “The Invincible,” Stanislaw Lem’s 1964 science fiction novel, in two evenings. Its precise descriptions of force fields and antimatter cannons seemed ready-made for the screen. “This is great material for a major game,” Markuszewski said he thought at the time, while he was working for the developer CD Projekt Red. But it was a challenge Markuszewski embraced after cofounding the Polish studio Starward Industries, which has adapted Lem’s work for its debut game, The Invincible. (It releases on Monday for the PC, the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X|S.)

GDANSK, June 14 (Reuters) - Polish video game producer 11 bit studios (11B.WA) plans to release Frostpunk 2, the sequel to its BAFTA-nominated society survival game, in the first half of 2024, company representatives said at an investor conference on Wednesday. Frostpunk 2 is currently ranked eighth on the Global Top Wishlists on video game platform Steam. In the coming year, 11 bit studios plans to focus on games rather than operational changes and acquisitions. The release of "The Invincible", a title developed by Starward Industries, whose shares were acquired by 11 bit studios last year, is planned for the third or fourth quarter. At 1051 GMT, 11 bit studios' shares were up 7.8%.
