Soon after they hit a homerun with a portable version of the hit PS2 console platformer, Ready at Dawn moved on and developed the recently released and major hit God of War: Chains of Olympus. Well, we are about to bid farewell to one of the greatest handheld developers of the modern era.

They have sent back their devkits to Sony and look forward to the future, where they are certain to shine bright.

Can't wait to show you guys what we have in store¿.""
