Eidos Interactive was a British video game publisher. In 2008, Square Enix purchased the company and renamed it as Square Enix Europe.

Eidos was originally formed to develop digitial video compression technologies, but found itself in the video game business after acquiring Domark in October 1995[1]. It would strengthen its position by acquiring the Centregold Group in April 1996, which included Core Design and U.S. Gold[1], benefiting significantly with the release of Tomb Raider and its successors.

The company would be merged into Square Enix Europe in 2009 and no longer exists as a separate entity. Many of its intellectual properties are now owned by the Embracer Group, after Square Enix sold mnuch of its its Western assets in August 2022.
