UK-based computer games Super Developer Rebellion was established in 1991 by brothers Jason and Chris Kingsley. Rebellion has developed such games as the double BAFTA-nominated Aliens Vs. Predator for 20th Century Fox on the PC, which was launched to worldwide success in 1999 and reached the number one slot in games charts throughout the world.
Since then, Rebellion's successful releases have included 'Delta Force: Urban Warfare', 'Rainbow Six: Lone Wolf', 'Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf' and most recently, the alternate reality FPS game 'World War Zero'. 2005 game releases include the Action/Adventure Sniper Sim 'Sniper Elite' for PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC. Games in development include 'Black Hawk Down' on PlayStation 2 and the 2000 AD character 'Rogue Trooper' game on PlayStation 2 and Xbox, plus a forthcoming PSP title and two additional projects.
In June 2000 Rebellion purchased the UK Sci-Fi comic 2000 AD and its entire character portfolio. In November 2003, Rebellion launched Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death on PlayStation 2, Xbox, PC and GameCube to universal acclaim.
In 2002, Rebellion produced their first movie 'Parasite', currently available on DVD. This production provided an invaluable experience for skills development and planning, which is being realised in their current and Next-Gen projects.
Rebellion pride themselves on their innovative approach to game design and application, incorporating the Asura Engine and Tools Suite, coupled with experience in movie making and publishing. This provides Clients and Partners a unique and valuable resource within the Games industry.
