Epic has announced a name for the studio it formed with former Kingdoms of Amalur developers back in June. Based in Maryland, the new venture is called Impossible Studios, and will be headed by Sean Dunn. The team's first task will be collaborating with Chair Entertainment on Infinity Blade: Dungeons , an iOS action RPG for iOS announced back in March

Impossible is comprised of many of the developers who worked on Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning at Big Huge Games, before its parent company 38 Studios laid off its entire staff in May.Dunn said, "Epic Games has truly embraced this stellar collection of developers who were displaced by the closing of Big Huge Games. They have looked after us with complete care, giving us all the tools and resources we need to make a lot of gamers happy." Meanwhile, the president of Epic Games Mike Capps said, "We were so glad we could help keep this great team together, and we're lucky to have them.""At the time, I said that finding a full team of superstars was 'impossible' and apparently the name stuck! Pairing the imagination and experience of Impossible with Epic's technology, IP and resources makes for a business greater than the sum of its parts."For more on Infinity Blade: Dungeons, check out our hands-on impressions from E3.
