Double Fine CEO Tim Schafer confirmed the studio now owns the IP and publishing rights for its entire catalog following its separation from Xbox, meaning game purchases directly fund the independent studio. The Psychonauts developer also revealed details on its 2026 pottery multiplayer game Kiln and an Amnesia Fortnight Kickstarter launching August 31.
Double Fine, the acclaimed studio behind Psychonauts and recent release Kiln, has filed a union petition with the CWA, seeking recognition from Microsoft. This move reflects the growing unionization trend in the U.S. games industry. With 42 workers involved, the studio's future within Microsoft's portfolio is under scrutiny.
