Ubisoft RedLynx

Ubisoft RedLynx is a Finnish video game development studio based in Helsinki, creating games for console, PC and mobile platforms. Founded in 2000, it built its early portfolio around browser and mobile games before becoming widely known for the Trials motorcycle platforming franchise. Its work combines original game development with co-development, platform adaptation, live operations and game technology engineering.

The studio’s early releases included games for Nokia’s N-Gage platform, such as Pathway to Glory, Pathway to Glory: Ikusa Islands and High Seize. It also developed Reset Generation, extending a portfolio that spans strategy, racing and action games across handheld, mobile and home platforms.

Original games and multiplatform development

The Trials series established RedLynx’s focus on physics-based vehicle gameplay, precise controls and obstacle-driven level design. Trials 2: Second Edition brought the series to PC audiences, followed by Trials HD on Xbox Live Arcade in 2009. Subsequent releases included Trials Evolution, Trials Fusion, Trials of the Blood Dragon, Trials Rising and the mobile title Trials Frontier.

Ubisoft acquired the studio in November 2011. Alongside its continuing work on Trials, RedLynx developed mobile and console titles including South Park: Phone Destroyer, a real-time strategy card battler, as well as DrawRace, MotoHeroz and Gwen’s Getaway. This portfolio reflects the studio’s experience bringing different game formats and control systems to multiple platforms.

Collaborative production and technology

Within Ubisoft’s development network, RedLynx has contributed to Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Mobile and Star Wars Outlaws. Its collaborative work includes platform ports, optimization, backend integration and live production support, alongside contributions to the Snowdrop Engine and Ubisoft Scalar cloud computing technology.

The studio’s capabilities cover full-cycle game design and production, cross-platform adaptation, ongoing content delivery and technology research. Its development history brings together original releases, mobile live operations and engineering contributions to larger productions.
