Good Games Group, a company formed by ex-Humble Games staff after the publisher was gutted back in 2024, have announced they’ve acquired Humble Games from Ziff Davis and have rebranded it to Balor Games.

The new Balor Games publishing label is being led by former Humble Games bosses Alan Patmore and Mark Nash, and the new purchase includes not only the brand name but also a catalog of over 60 games, some of which include: Slay the Spire, A Hat in Time, SIGNALIS, Forager, Coral Island, Monaco, and Wizard of Legend. The purchase also includes the catalog of Firestoke-published games.

“For the developers we have worked with over the years, this moment is a reunion,” said Alan Patmore, CEO of Balor Games in a press release. “The same leadership, and the same commitment to thoughtful publishing remain in place. What changes is our scale and our focus. Balor Games is built for inventors and backed by believers. To that end, it exists to be a seal of quality for independent games.”

Balor Games aims to be a “Cultural Curator” for what they describe as “Triple I titles,” delivering resources and expertise from an experienced publisher while preserving the creative independence that defines great indie games.

Furthermore, Balor Games also just signed a new publishing agreement for co-op horror tactical shooter SCP: 5K, which is currently in early access for PC.
