(archived version from 1 April 2016)</td></tr></tbody></table> Lionhead Studios Limited was a British <a href="/wiki/Video_game_developer" title="Video game developer">video game developer</a> founded in July 1997 by <a href="/wiki/Peter_Molyneux" title="Peter Molyneux">Peter Molyneux</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mark_Webley" title="Mark Webley">Mark Webley</a>, Tim Rance, and <a href="/wiki/Steve_Jackson_(British_game_designer)" title="Steve Jackson (British game designer)">Steve Jackson</a>. The company is best known for the <a href="/wiki/Black_%26_White_(series)" class="mw-redirect" title="Black & White (series)">Black & White</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fable_(video_game_series)" title="Fable (video game series)">Fable</a> series. Lionhead started as a breakaway from developer <a href="/wiki/Bullfrog_Productions" title="Bullfrog Productions">Bullfrog Productions</a>, which was also founded by Molyneux. Lionhead's first game was <a href="/wiki/Black_%26_White_(video_game)" title="Black & White (video game)">Black & White</a>, a <a href="/wiki/God_game" title="God game">god game</a> with elements of <a href="/wiki/Artificial_life" title="Artificial life">artificial life</a> and <a href="/wiki/Strategy_game" title="Strategy game">strategy</a> games. Black & White was published by <a href="/wiki/Electronic_Arts" title="Electronic Arts">Electronic Arts</a> in 2001. Lionhead Studios is named after Webley's <a href="/wiki/Hamster" title="Hamster">hamster</a>, which died not long after the naming of the studio, as a result of which the studio was very briefly renamed to Redeye Studios. Black & White was followed up with the release of an expansion pack named <a href="/wiki/Black_%26_White:_Creature_Isle" title="Black & White: Creature Isle">Black & White: Creature Isle</a>. Lionhead released <a href="/wiki/Fable_(2004_video_game)" title="Fable (2004 video game)">Fable</a>, from satellite developer Big Blue Box. In 2005, Lionhead released <a href="/wiki/The_Movies_(video_game)" title="The Movies (video game)">The Movies</a> and <a href="/wiki/Black_%26_White_2" title="Black & White 2">Black & White 2</a>. Lionhead was acquired by <a href="/wiki/Microsoft_Studios" class="mw-redirect" title="Microsoft Studios">Microsoft Studios</a> in April 2006 due to encountering financial difficulties. Many Lionhead developers left around this time, including co-founder Jackson and several developers who left to found <a href="/wiki/Media_Molecule" title="Media Molecule">Media Molecule</a>. Molyneux left Lionhead in early 2012 (shortly after the resignation of another group of developers who were dissatisfied with the company) to found <a href="/wiki/22cans" title="22cans">22cans</a> because he wanted to be more creative.

One such prank was one "that would go down in Lionhead history". It involved a visit from the Mayor of Guildford during the development of Black & White: Healey had inserted a couple of wires into a woollen glove with the other ends put into a floppy drive. Molyneux was forced to explain to the Mayor how the game's on-screen hand was controlled by the glove (which Healey was wearing), when it was actually being controlled by a mouse with Healey's other hand, which were hidden. The Mayor fell for the trick.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a><a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a> By June 2002, Lionhead had established satellite companies, including Big Blue Box Studios, Intrepid Computer Entertainment (also called Intrepid Developments<a href="#cite_note-LDParty-35">[35]</a>), and Black & White Studios.<a href="#cite_note-Inside-36">[36]</a><a href="#cite_note-BullfrogLegacy-37">[37]</a> Lionhead and its satellite studios had 107 employees and were developing six games: <a href="/wiki/Fable_(2004_video_game)" title="Fable (2004 video game)">Fable</a>, <a href="/wiki/The_Movies_(video_game)" title="The Movies (video game)">The Movies</a>, a project called Creation (also called Dimitri), Black & White NG (Black & White Next Generation), <a href="/wiki/Black_%26_White_2" title="Black & White 2">Black & White 2</a>, and <a href="/wiki/BC_(video_game)" title="BC (video game)">BC</a>,<a href="#cite_note-Inside-36">[36]</a> despite Molyneux's earlier statement that Lionhead would only work on one at a time.<a href="#cite_note-Legend-19">[19]</a> The idea to form these satellite studios came from Jackson during the development of Black & White.<a href="#cite_note-SecretHistory-38">[38]</a> Big Blue Box Studios was founded in July 1998 by Ian Lovett and Simon and Dene Carter,<a href="#cite_note-SiliconValley-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-BullfrogLegacy-37">[37]</a> because of a desire to leave Electronic Arts and "the sadly ravaged corpse of Bullfrog it had left behind".<a href="#cite_note-RiseFall-39">[39]</a> Intrepid Computer Entertainment was founded by Joe Rider and Matt Chilton,<a href="#cite_note-BullfrogLegacy-37">[37]</a> and Black & White Studios was headed by Jonty Barnes, who was a programmer on <a href="/wiki/Dungeon_Keeper" title="Dungeon Keeper">Dungeon Keeper</a> and Black & White.<a href="#cite_note-Inside-36">[36]</a> According to Molyneux, The Movies came about because Lionhead listened to some financial advisers after the release of Black & White, who said that the company would die if it did not float on the stock market. The company then went for <a href="/wiki/Initial_public_offering" title="Initial public offering">initial public offering</a>, which Molyneux said was "The most stupid thing that ever happened"

href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a>), and Lionhead soon afterwards encountered financial difficulty.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Due to this, on 6 April 2006, Lionhead Studios was acquired by Microsoft.<a href="#cite_note-MSAcq-3">[3]</a> <a href="/wiki/Ubisoft" title="Ubisoft">Ubisoft</a> was another contender for the acquisition of Lionhead,<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> but

the company's future and protecting jobs and spent "months" preparing for the acquisition.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Some, such as Andy Robson (Head of Testing), were dissatisfied with the deal.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> He claimed Lionhead were trying to cheat him out of money he was owed.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Molyneux believed that

general consensus amongst Lionhead was that the buyout "benefited Lionhead greatly".<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Microsoft purchased a lease that enabled Lionhead to expand to multiple floors, a canteen, and an office revamp.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> According to Fable franchise director Ted Timmins, the improvements felt like Lionhead was "a real developer".<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> The pranks were also reduced.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> During the development of Fable II, Lionhead received death threats because the game featured a gay character and some of the leading characters were black.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Microsoft, for the most part, left Lionhead alone during the development of Fable II, but did ask them to change the icon of a condom (the game featured a dog who was able to dig them up) to a modern one, despite the game being set in an earlier era. Lionhead and Microsoft conflicted over the game's marketing: Microsoft believed that role-playing games were about dragons and wanted to market the game as such, despite Lionhead's insistence that the game was "a Monty Python-esque comedy". According to Fable art director John McCormack, the marketing was "shit" and that dragons were <a href="/wiki/Dungeons_%26_Dragons" title="Dungeons & Dragons">Dungeons & Dragons</a> fare and had nothing to do with Fable.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Despite the row, most of the Fable II team thought highly of the relationship between Lionhead and Microsoft, and after the game's release, Lionhead won a <a href="/wiki/BAFTA_award" class="mw-redirect" title="BAFTA award">BAFTA award</a> for the best action adventure game. There was also a dispute over <a href="/wiki/Fable_III" title="Fable III">Fable III</a>'s box art. The game was developed and released in 18 months, but fell short of the expectations set by the previous installment.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Six months before its release, Lionhead attempted to integrate <a href="/wiki/Kinect" title="Kinect">Kinect</a> into the game, but failed. In June 2009, Molyneux became creative director of Microsoft Studios' European division,<a href="#cite_note-CDMS-49">[49]</a> a position he held concurrently with the head of Lionhead.<a href="#cite_note-ChairPM-1">[1]</a> Another Kinect-based project, <a href="/wiki/Project_Milo" title="Project Milo">Milo & Kate</a> was in development but was cancelled. Molyneux blamed the cancellation on Kinect's technology and Microsoft's attitude towards their target market. Its development team moved to <a href="/wiki/Fable:_The_Journey" title="Fable: The Journey">Fable: The Journey</a>, another Kinect game that was released in 2012 and was "disastrous".<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Molyneux's_departure">Molyneux's departure</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Lionhead_Studios&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Molyneux's departure">edit</a>]</div> By early 2012, Lionhead were suffering what had been described as "Black Monday". Several Lionhead veterans, dissatisfied with the way the company was heading, resigned on the same day. According to McCormack, Molyneux "lost it" and ordered them to leave the premises immediately. Molyneux apologised for this outburst, and soon afterwards, in March, he too left Lionhead and founded <a href="/wiki/22cans" title="22cans">22cans</a>,<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a><a href="#cite_note-MWPoly-5">[5]</a> along with Rance, who had ceased being Lionhead's chief technology officer sometime prior.<a href="#cite_note-50">[50]</a> He was also joined by Paul McLaughlin,<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> who was Lionhead's head of art.<a href="#cite_note-BWTeam-52">[52]</a> Webley then temporarily took over as head of the studio,<a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> before being replaced by Scott Henson early the following year.<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a> Molyneux said he left Lionhead because he wanted to increase his creativity.<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a> He also said that after 12 years (the series began in 2000 by Big Blue Box Studios<a href="#cite_note-SecretHistory-38">[38]</a><a href="#cite_note-Inside-36">[36]</a>), everyone was "tired" of the Fable series.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Craig Oman, producer of <a href="/wiki/Fable_Anniversary" class="mw-redirect" title="Fable Anniversary">Fable Anniversary</a>, said that Molyneux's departure gave Lionhead an opportunity to reidentify itself.<a href="#cite_note-EdgeDepart-56">[56]</a> Molyneux's departure had a much greater impact than those of other veterans who had already left the company. Lionhead became more professional and organised according to some staff. One said that Molyneux had the power to keep Microsoft at bay, and his departure left the remaining staff vulnerable.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Around this time, Microsoft insisted that Lionhead make a <a href="/wiki/Games_as_a_service" title="Games as a service">games as a service</a> Fable game to reinvigorate interest in the series or face closure. Due to the switch to service based model, the idea of Fable IV was rejected, and experts in monetisation and competitive game design were hired to assist the transition. At some point, John Needham became head of Lionhead.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Creative director Carr (who had played major roles in Milo & Kate, The Movies, and Fable: The Journey) left in September 2015,<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> and a new one, David Eckelberry, was brought in.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Lionhead encountered difficulty in this project, <a href="/wiki/Fable_Legends" title="Fable Legends">Fable Legends</a>, because they had not done anything like it before.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Closure">Closure</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Lionhead_Studios&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Closure">edit</a>]</div> On 7 March 2016, Microsoft announced the cancellation of Fable Legends and a proposed closure of Lionhead Studios.<a href="#cite_note-shutdown-58">[58]</a> The closure came as a shock to some staff, who had suspected Microsoft were concerned but did not think Lionhead would be shut down: it was thought that the worst-case scenario would be that Fable Legends's assets would be used for Fable IV.<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> Some staff put the closure down to "a string of bad decisions and mismanagement".<a href="#cite_note-eg_history-18">[18]</a> The game was supposed to be released in summer 2015, after the release of <a href="/wiki/Windows_10" title="Windows 10">Windows 10</a>, and some said Lionhead had failed to meet their own targets. To comply with UK employment law, there was a consultation period and the Fable Legends servers were not shut down until mid-April so that customers could get refunds.
