Irrational Games changed its name following an acquisition by publisher Take-Two but the studio has gone back to its roots to keep the legacy alive, reports Game Informer.
“After repeatedly being referred to as ‘2K Boston (formerly Irrational Games),’ the team members recognized a value in the previous identity and the legacy that was tied to it. So, the name was changed again; 2K Boston is no more, and Irrational Games is back,” says the magazine, which is set to feature an in-depth look at the studio in its latest issue.
Irrational Games was founded by former members (including Ken Levine, pictured) of System Shock and Thief developer Looking Glass Studios. Both games are now considered PC classics.
