Stig Asmussen founds Giant Skull, a new independent studio focused on developing AAA scale titles with a strong narrative focus. As the director behind successful titles such as God of War 3, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Asmussen departed from Respawn Entertainment in September 2023 to pursue his own venture.
Giant Skull is comprised of former talent from renowned studios like Respawn Entertainment, Epic Games, Rocksteady Studios, and Riot Games. One notable member is Jeff Magers, who previously held the position of design director for both Star Wars Jedi games.
Embracing a culture that values curiosity, creativity, and the creation of engaging player-driven stories and heroic combat, Giant Skull’s first project is a single-player action-adventure game of AAA scale developed using Unreal Engine 5.
