History
NeocoreGames was founded in 2005 and began working as a small game development studio. The studio is known for their work in the role-playing game genre exemplified by their King Arthur: The Role-Playing Wargame series. The sequel, King Arthur II: The Role-Playing Wargame, was developed using Coretech 2, NeocoreGames's new game engine.
In 2012 with the announcement of the action-RPG The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing and the party-based tactical RPG Broken Sea, NeocoreGames has returned to independent video game development. In May 2012 the company announced the development of a role-playing game based on Bram Stoker's Dracula. Titled The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing, the game follows Van Helsing's son as he travels to the eastern-European kingdom of Borgovia to slay the monsters that are overrunning the land. The game was to be the start of a new intellectual property for NeocoreGames. In June 2012 at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, NeocoreGames announced a second new game they were developing: Broken Sea is a fantasy tactical role-playing game developed for the PC. In August 2014, NeocoreGames announced their first tower defense game, titled Deathtrap. In February 2017, NeocoreGames launched the Founding for their upcoming Action-RPG titled Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr.
