"When one door closes, a window sometimes opens." That old saying could be used to describe the formation of Outbreak Studios, a newly launched game development team made up mostly of old members of GRIN, the Stockholm-based team that officially shut their doors today.

About 25 folks comprise the Outbreak team including Peter Bjorklund, the lead programmer for Terminator Salvation. He previously worked at Digital Illusions where he helped to create the engine that was used for, among other games, Battlefield 2. There's no word on what projects they will be coming up with but the company's web site did say they want to develop titles for Games For Windows Live, among other platforms. That makes it clear that Outbreak won't be just a console dev house.
