Möbius Entertainment was founded on 15 April 1998 by Gordon Hall, Jason McGann, Dave Box, Ian Bowden and Justin Johnson. It was located in a converted 18th-century church in the Pudsey area of Leeds.
During the period up to 2004, the studio was responsible for various titles including the Game Boy Advance version of Max Payne published in 2003 by Rockstar Games.
