About the Company
Torn Banner is a mid-size indie studio that specializes in multiplayer melee combat games. We founded the studio back in 2012 along with the dream that our (at the time) fledgling new title Chivalry: Medieval Warfare would find a big audience. And it did!
We are a team that puts passion into our work, and every individual at Torn Banner has a huge impact on the final product that we put out.
