Background

Free Radical Design (originally known as Geveret Ltd. until 1999) is a UK game developer founded by David Doak, Steve Ellis, Karl Hilton and Graeme Norgate, who were all formally developers at Rare on projects like GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark. The studio is best known for the TimeSplitters series, which has since received many awards and a dedicated cult following. After the release of the PlayStation 3-exclusive title Haze in 2008, and the title receiving mixed-to-negative reviews along with the studio's troubles with developing a third title in the original Star Wars Battlefront series, Free Radical would near closure in late 2008, but would be saved after being bought by Far Cry and Crysis developers Crytek in 2009. The studio, renamed as Crytek UK, would end its run during the development of Homefront: The Revolution, during which the series' IP was bought by Deep Silver and Crytek UK's staff was moved to Deep Silver Dambuster. In May 2021, Deep Silver announced they had reformed Free Radical Design, with many of the members and founders from the original studio on board to develop a new entry in the TimeSplitters series, which is currently in production.
