Magenta Software

About

Magenta Software is a UK Games Developer based in Liverpool, with offices located at the historic Albert Dock complex overlooking the waterfront of the River Mersey.

Founded in 1994 by developers whose roots went back to the early days of home computer games, Magenta Software's in-house focus has always been towards developing great game play, which we believe is the true life-blood of any great title.

Over the years we have worked with some of the industries top publishers including Sony, Disney, Atari and Vivendi. We have also worked on a number of high-profile licenses including Stuart Little, Treasure Planet and The Cat in the Hat. These were all delivered day and date to coincide with the release of their respective films.

In 2006 we created the concept and IP that would become the 'Buzz! Junior' franchise for Sony. For the first game in the series, Buzz! Junior: Jungle Party, we won the 2007 Children's Videogame BAFTA. For the second game, Buzz! Junior: Robo Jam, we won the 2007 Children's Jury Giga Maus.

We are a first party developer for Sony on both the Playstation 2 and 3. In addition we are registered developers for Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii.
