History

Founded in 2007, Dotemu is a video game developer and publisher. Based in Paris, they are specialised in retrogaming: they bring back the best games from the past on the most recent platforms.

They worked with talented creators from all around the world including companies like SNK or Square Enix and living legends like Jordan Mechner (Prince of Persia, The Last Express), Yoshihisa Kishimoto (Double Dragon series), Frederick Raynal (Little Big Adventures, Alone in the Dark), Shinji Hashimoto (Final Fantasy series) or Eric Chahi (Another World).

For 10 years, they re-published a lot of classics from the West and Japan, porting them to modern platforms sometimes by adding improvements over the original versions. They first venture into complete remakes with Lizardcube and the digital release of Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap in 2017, then started in parallel the development of the sequels of 2 video game series, cult series in France: Streets of Rage 4 and Windjammers 2, both released in 2020.
