History

TopWare Interactive was started in 1995 as a video game publishing subsidiary of TopWare CD Service AG based in Mannheim, Germany, which included two inhouse development studios (ToonTRAXX and TopWare Programy), which was later renamed to Reality Pump Studios based in Poland. In February 2001, TopWare CD Service AG filed for bankruptcy.[2] All rights, including both development studios, were acquired by Zuxxez Entertainment AG.

The company was resurrected by Zuxxez in 2005.[3] In 2011, Zuxxez officially changed its name back to TopWare Interactive, thus completely abandoning the Zuxxez brand. TopWare Interactive AG's American company, TopWare Interactive Inc., revealed that it was developing Battle vs. Chess to be published by SouthPeak Games. Interplay Entertainment sued and won an injunction to stop sales in the United States. In February 2012, Interplay won the case by default and a settlement was agreed on 15 November 2012. Terms of the settlement were $200,000 plus interest.[4]

TopWare Interactive / Zuxxez Entertainment filed for bankruptcy again on 1 February 2016.[5] While the company has not released any official comment on the subject yet, the insolvency has already been registered in the European Insolvency Register.[6] The filing for bankruptcy comes just a few days after the pulling of Vendetta: Curse of Raven's Cry (the last game published by TopWare Interactive, a re-release of Raven's Cry) from Steam. Nevertheless, TopWare quietly released the game again later.

However, on 26 March 2016, TopWare announced it has begun development of Two Worlds 3 which is set to be released in 2020.[7]

Reality Pump Studios

Reality Pump Studios was founded as an in-house developer for TopWare Interactive in Bielsko-Biała, Poland, in 1995. Their first successful title was Earth 2140. In 2001, they formed a partnership with Zuxxez Entertainment AG and officially took the name 'Reality Pump - Game Development Studios'. They moved their headquarters to Kraków.

In 2015 the company went bankrupt and was acquired by TopWare Interactive.[8]
