While Game Republic was a completely independent developer able to produce titles for any publisher and/or platform they desire, during the company's early years it had enjoyed a close relationship with Sony Computer Entertainment, with many of their early titles funded by and produced in conjunction with the publisher. Later projects were mostly funded and published by Namco Bandai Games. In June 2011 reports surfaced of Game Republic shutting down its website and vacating its offices.[1] Many of the former Game Republic developers have been hired by Tango Gameworks.[2][3]
