TKO Software

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TKO Software is a computer game development company founded in 2002 in Santa Cruz, California, USA by Jacob Hawley and Michael Songy.

TKO Software created Medal of Honor: Allied Assault: Breakthrough (2003) and the multiplayer portion of Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault (2004), both for Electronic Arts. Apart from this, the company has created content for EA's GoldenEye: Rogue Agent, and multiple mobile and handheld titles, including The Elder Scrolls Travels: Shadowkey for Nokia's N-Gage and mobile versions of Tenchu, X-Men 2: Battle, Gauntlet and an adventure game based on the movie The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

The company was known, at one time, to be working on a PC/console version of forthcoming Matthew McConaughey movie Sahara, and a video game version of classic sci-fi movie Logan's Run.

In January of 2005 TKO Software shut down its PC and console games development studio, located in Santa Cruz, leading to the loss of around 60 jobs. TKO's cellphone and handheld game console divisions, located in Texas and Dublin, were unaffected. In August of 2005 the remaining TKO Software offices were also shut down.

Jacob Hawley now works as a VP of Engineering for Acacia Technologies, the notorious patent troll
