Hooded Horse is an American video game publisher founded in 2019. Based in Dallas, Texas, the company is most known for publishing tactical and strategic games such as Against the Storm, Old World, Manor Lords, and 9 Kings.
History The company was founded in 2019. The company specializes in publishing tactical and strategic games with elements commonly seen in role-playing games. As a publisher, Hooded Horse will allocate a budget of at least $100,000 for localization and marketing for each project, and developers can retain 65% of all revenues generated following a game's release. Early games published by Hooded Horse include Terra Invicta, a grand strategy game from Pavonis Interactive, the studio behind the Long War mods for modern XCOM games, and Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic from 3Division. It then signed with Mohawk Games for the development of Old World, after the original publisher Starbreeze Studios abandoned the project as it encountered financial difficulties.
By 2023, the publisher had a total of 12 employees, and had published 20 games, most of which were released through Steam's early access program. Against the Storm was released in late 2023 to critical acclaim, and had sold over 1 million copies by March 2024. The company is set to publish Manor Lords (released through early access in April 2024), and Nova Roma from Lion Shield, the developer behind Kingdoms and Castles, among others. In June 2026, Beyond All Reason developers signs publishing deal with Hooded Horse to release their game on Steam.
