As part of accelerating Starbreeze's adopted strategy for long-term growth, the company has hired Egil Strunke as Chief Strategy Officer (CSO), to be part of the company's group management and report directly to CEO Tobias Sjögren.

"We are very happy to welcome Egil to Starbreeze. We will continue to execute our growth strategy by creating projects on our own IPs, licensed IPs and by expanding our third-party publishing. Egil's broad experience from commercialization and strategy from both the games and the broader entertainment industry will be incredibly valuable as we now take our next steps.", says Tobias Sjögren, CEO, Starbreeze.
"Starbreeze, as Sweden's oldest independent studio, faces several exciting strategic opportunities in the coming years. I look forward to contributing my skills and experience in that work, together with a proven and hungry team", says Egil Strunke, CSO, Starbreeze.
