Circle Studio

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 transitioned to releasing and publishing licensed DVD games,[4] with distribution handled by Pinnacle Vision.

The company was liquidated in February 2007.[5]
