PCF Group S.A. has entered formal negotiations with a global publisher to develop a new video game under a work-for-hire business model.
The proposed partnership follows the receipt of a formal Statement of Work and a framework Service Agreement on December 20, 2025.
Under the work-for-hire model, the publisher will retain project rights and oversight, while People Can Fly provides development services for agreed-upon remuneration.
This initiative aligns with PCF Group’s 2023 corporate strategy to balance internal intellectual property development with steady revenue from large-scale service agreements.
The terms currently under negotiation are described as consistent with standard industry practices for major gaming sector service contracts.
No final agreement has been executed yet, and the company will provide further disclosures only upon the conclusion of negotiations or the signing of a formal contract.
PCF Group S.A., the parent company of the game development studio People Can Fly, has officially entered negotiations with a renowned global publisher to establish a new production partnership. This development follows the receipt of a formal Statement of Work and a framework Service Agreement on December 20, 2025. The proposed collaboration centers on the development of a video game under a work-for-hire business model, where the studio provides development services in exchange for agreed-upon remuneration while the publisher retains project oversight and rights.
This strategic move aligns with the company’s updated corporate strategy announced in early 2023, which emphasizes pursuing attractive work-for-hire opportunities alongside internal intellectual property development. By engaging with a high-profile partner, the studio aims to leverage its technical expertise and production capacity to generate steady revenue streams. The terms currently under discussion are described as consistent with standard industry practices for large-scale service agreements in the gaming sector.
While the commencement of these negotiations marks a significant step toward securing a major new project, the leadership of PCF Group S.A. notes that a final agreement has not yet been executed. The successful conclusion of these talks would represent a continuation of the studio's efforts to balance its portfolio between original titles and collaborative projects with major industry publishers. Further public disclosures are expected once the negotiations reach a definitive conclusion or if a formal contract is signed.
