Classic Red Baron games added to GoG.com's line-up


Last month Mad Otter Games announced that they had purchased the IP for the classic Red Baron series of PC flying action games. Today GoG.com has announced a new agreement with Mad Otter Games that will allow GoG.com to offer the original titles for sale at their DRM-free PC game download site.

GoG.com is selling the Red Baron Pack which contains the original game along with Red Baron 3D (a patched version of Red Baron 2) and the Red Baron Mission Builder for anyone who wants to make their own missions for the game. The bundle is being sold for $9.99 and includes reference cards and extra maps.

Red Baron game rights bought by game's co-creator


Yet another classic game franchise that was consumed by the Activision Blizzard merger has found a new home. This time its the Red Baron flying action game series that has been bought by indie game developer Mad Otter Games. The studio was founded by Damon Slye, who co-founded Dynamix and helped to create the Red Baron series while at that now defunct developer. He got out of game development for a while but just recently got back into making games with Mad Otter.

Mad Otter has not yet announced any plans for new games in the series but is giving $1,500 to the first person who can turn in the original source code for Red Baron, Red Baron II, and Red Baron 3D.
