Versus Evil, LLC is a US-based independent video game publisher. The company was founded to help independent game developers be financially and creatively successful in the highly competitive video game market. Led by 15-year industry veteran Steve Escalante, formerly of Bethesda Softworks, Versus Evil's services include a full suite of publishing support, including brand marketing, community, social, public relations, creative, production, quality assurance, legal, distribution and other general business support. Versus Evil's staff is located in California, Texas, Maryland, New York City, and London.
On January 14, 2014, Versus Evil launched Stoic's role-playing strategy game, The Banner Saga, which received praise as one of the top indie titles of 2014. Versus Evil continued to spread its distribution throughout the globe by launching Dragons and Titans, a free-to-play multiplayer online battle arena game, and the Steam Early Access version of Habitat, which it expects to launch at retail in 2015. In August 2014 at Gamescom in Cologne, Germany, Versus Evil announced several key developer partnerships including Tangrin Studios based in the Netherlands, who are working on an action role-playing title, Kyn, and SwordTales, a Brazilian indie developer, who are working on their first video game, Toren, a puzzle platform adventure game. Also part of this announcement was the development of a sequel to the third-person action game Afro Samurai, currently called Afro Samurai 2: Revenge of Kuma, being developed by indie developer Redacted Studios. In September 2014, Versus Evil launched their first mobile title by bringing The Banner Saga to the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.
