● The core 360-strong team behind the game was Rockstar North, who brought on board a number of other studios owned by parent company Rockstar Games to facilitate development between a full team in excess of 1,000 people.

● Technical director Adam Fowler reflected that while development effort was shared between multiple studios in different countries, the process involved close collaboration between the core team and others, necessitated by many mechanics in the game working in tandem which would have created difficulties if studios were siphoned off from others.

● With the success of the game, Markus formed his own company in 2009. Mojang AB currently has two titles in development. Scrolls and Markus’ newest project, are both getting cooked up. Mojang AB is also publishing Oxeye Studio’s latest game, Cobalt.
