Sony Wipeout veterans create studio

A group of video games developers from Sony's defunct Liverpool operation have created a studio in the city.

Sawfly Studios plans to release its first game - targeted at smartphones and tablets - within the next couple of months.

About 100 people lost their jobs when Sony closed what was one of the UK's oldest games developers last August.

The unit was responsible for the Wipeout racing series, but dated back to 1984, when it was called Psygnosis.
