It is correct that Paradox Interactive, a Swedish video game publisher, announced in 2017 that it had acquired the rights to the popular prison simulation game Prison Architect from Introversion Software, a British video game development company. Paradox Interactive acquired the rights to publish and distribute the game, while Introversion Software continued to develop the game and provide support for it. Prison Architect is a construction and management simulation game in which players design and build their own prisons, manage the finances and resources of the prison, and deal with the needs and issues of the prisoners. The game was developed and released by Introversion Software in 2015, and has since gained a large following of players. The acquisition by Paradox Interactive allowed Introversion Software to focus on the development of the game, while Paradox Interactive handled the publishing and distribution aspects. The acquisition also allowed the game to be released on additional platforms, such as the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, which it had not previously been available on.
