Behaviour Interactive, known for its success in the horror genre with Dead by Daylight, has acquired The Fun Pimps, developers of 7 Days to Die, with the aim of strengthening the development of this popular survival game.

Since its launch in beta phase, the title has sold over 20 million copies and maintains an impressive 93% positive reviews on Steam, in addition to attracting around 30,000 daily players.

They want to continue expanding their portfolio

Despite the acquisition, The Fun Pimps has assured that it will continue to lead the project without relinquishing control, preserving its original vision and commitment to the community.

The studio’s co-founder, Richard Huenink, has stated that this decision does not imply a drastic change, but rather aims to enhance its development capacity, thus allowing access to greater resources to accelerate the creation of new content and explore more ambitious ideas.

Behaviour Interactive has embarked on a strategy focused on acquiring studios that share its philosophy, emphasizing community support and modding, key elements in the success of 7 Days to Die. This move comes after the Canadian studio also acquired Red Hook Studios, creators of Darkest Dungeon, consolidating a trend towards expanding its game catalog.

The purchase, the amount of which has not been revealed, represents a logical evolution for The Fun Pimps, whose only game has received outstanding feedback since its launch. Although the title has evolved over its 11 years of development, the player base has remained solid, underscoring the permanence and interest in the experience that 7 Days to Die offers. It is rumored that this change could result in new and exciting updates in the near future.
