Dan Houser may be planning to return to game development.
Dan Hauser,Co-founder Rock star At the beginning of last year, the key creatives behind many of the studio’s most successful games (including GTA and Red Dead Redemption) left the studio. Now, the senior designer seems to have returned to the game field.
As discovered on the GTA Forum (via VGC), Houser has registered a company called Absurd adventure in the gameThe listing of Companies House describes the company’s business as providing “off-the-shelf interactive leisure and entertainment software development.”
Houser is listed as the producer and creative director, and the company was just registered on June 23. But that’s not all, Houser also registered two other companies with similar names in the United States: Absurd Ventures LLC, and Absurd Ventures in Games LLC-both registered in February. The American company is located in Delaware, while the British company is located in Cheshire.
Interestingly, the listed address of the British studio is the same as that of Oakwood Corporate Secret LTD, a British company that handles the management and business needs of other companies, such as managing their company registration documents. Apart from that, apart from Dan Hauser himself, no registered company lists any employees.
Houser and his brother Sam led the development of many of Rockstar’s iconic games, such as the GTA and Red Dead Redemption series. Although Sam Houser continues to lead Rockstar today, Dan left after a long break after the launch of Red Dead Redemption 2.
