Lymar has worked in games since 2006 and previously served as director and CEO of 4A Games Ukraine, which operated as a separately owned entity distinct from other 4A Games studios. Reburn was formerly known as 4A Games Ukraine, one of multiple studios working on the Metro video game series. Reburn comprises more than 110 developers, featuring many designers, artists, animators, programmers, QA, and more from across the Metro game franchise. In moving on from its established IP, Kyiv, Ukraine-based Reburn is doing something rare. Most game companies get addicted to sequels. But Reburn is taking a risk on brand new IP. The world and narrative of La Quimera is written and created by Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, The Neon Demon) and E.J.A. Warren. 4A Games was founded in Kyiv in Ukraine in 2006, and development of Metro 2033 began. The company built its own 4A game engine. In 2007, 4A Ukraine worked through its Cyprus office to sign a deal with THQ to fund development and publishing of Metro 2033. The IP rights went to THQ as part of the deal, but the IP rights to the game engine stayed with 4A Ukraine. The title came out in 2010, and it was a hit as a triple-A game. Then THQ signed up for the development of Metro Last Light. But in 2012, THQ went bankrupt and the rights to Metro Last Light were acquired in an auction by Koch Media, operating under the Deep Silver trademark. In 2014, Russia attacked Ukraine for the first time. Part of the team left and founded their own studio in Malta. La Quimera is available now on Windows PC via Steam for $30/£30 GBP.
