Sumo Digital had perhaps the biggest E3 presence of any UK developer this year – although you might not have known it.
The studio’s work was front and centre at the Xbox press conference in the form of the long-awaited Crackdown 3 – now confirmed for a February 2019 release. But Sumo could also be found on Sega’s booth with Team Sonic Racing, and it is contributing to Warner Bros’ Hitman 2, posters for which were inescapable at the Los Angeles Convention Centre.
Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz at the studio’s home in Sheffield, managing director Paul Porter is brimming with pride at his firm’s role in bringing major AAA IP to market.
