38 Studios, owned by former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling, releases it's first video game.
(AP) — The video game company owned by former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling has released its much-anticipated first game.
Providence-based 38 Studios released the single-player role-playing game "Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning" on Tuesday. Schilling was on hand at a gaming store in Bellingham, Mass., where people lined up well before its midnight release.
The Providence Journal (http://bit.ly/ymZw6E ) reports that about 150 people showed up. Schilling said the game's debut was "nerve-wracking but exciting."
38 Studios was founded in Massachusetts but lured to Rhode Island in 2010 after state officials offered it a $75-million loan guarantee. The state said its backing would help the company bring hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars of tax revenue to the state.
