Raw Fury AB is a Swedish video game publisher, specialising in the publication of indie games, based in Stockholm. The company was founded in 2015 by Jonas Antonsson and Gordon Van Dyke.
History
The company was founded in 2015 by Jonas Antonsson, ex-vice-president of mobile for Paradox Interactive, and Gordon Van Dyke, formerly a producer for EA DICE on the various Battlefield titles. The company was announced in April 2015 as a "publisher for boutique and indie games", calling themselves an "UnPublisher" as they intend to support developers by "dismantl[ing] how publishing traditionally works" and providing supportive services that better serve indie game development.{{cite web |url=https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ex-battlefield-producer-launches-new-game-company-/1100-6426834/ |title=Ex-Battlefield Producer Launches New Game Company, the First "UnPublisher" |first=Eddie |last=Makuch |date=23 April 2015 |website=GameSpot |access-date=12 June 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161109203129/http://www.gamespot.com/articles/ex-battlefield-producer-launches-new-game-company-/1100-6426834/ |archive-date=9 November 2016 |url-status=live }}
In July 2016, Karl Magnus Troedsson stepped down as general manager of EA DICE to become a partner and co-owner of Raw Fury.{{cite magazine |url=http://www.develop-online.net/news/former-dice-ceo-leaves-ea-for-emerging-indie-label-raw-fury/0222202 |title=Former DICE CEO leaves EA for emerging indie label Raw Fury |first=Matthew |last=Jarvis |date=4 July 2016 |website=Develop |access-date=12 June 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161010151635/http://www.develop-online.net/news/former-dice-ceo-leaves-ea-for-emerging-indie-label-raw-fury/0222202 |archive-date=10 October 2016 |url-status=live }} In early September 2019, Raw Fury opened Fury Studios, an internal development studio located in Zagreb, Croatia, to aid external developers with porting, quality assurance, and other support matters.{{cite web |url=https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-10-08-raw-fury-opens-new-croatian-studio |title=Raw Fury opens new Croatian studio |first=Rebekah |last=Valentine |date=8 October 2019 |website=GamesIndustry.biz}} At the same time, the company moved headquarters within Stockholm to cope with its growing employee count, which reached roughly 40 people worldwide.
In August 2021, Altor Equity Partners acquired a majority ownership of Raw Fury for an undisclosed price. Raw Fury said, "The experience and monetary boost that Altor brings to the table will allow us to increase our production capacity and add to the team at Raw Fury, giving us the ability to publish larger projects while continuing to still fund smaller projects and experimental art."{{cite web |url=https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2021-08-16-altor-acquires-majority-stake-in-raw-fury|title=Altor acquires majority stake in Raw Fury | first =Brendan | last = Sinclair | date = 16 August 2021 | accessdate = 16 August 2021 | work = GamesIndustry.biz }}
In October 2021, Raw Fury announced that they had entered into a first-look deal with DJ2 Entertainment to develop television and film projects.{{cite web|title=Raw Fury Sets First-Look Deal With dj2 Entertainment for Film, Television Projects (EXCLUSIVE)|url=https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/raw-fury-first-look-deal-dj2-entertainment-1235084614/|work=Variety|first=Joe|last=Otterson|date=11 October 2021|access-date=11 October 2021}}
