Develop Awards 2015: Team17 wins Publishing Hero

UK firm Team17 took home the prize for Publishing Hero from last night’s Publishing Hero.

Team17 beat stiff competition from this year’s other finalists, including last year’s winner SCEE Strategic Content, Square Enix, 505 Games, Deep Silver, Greenshoots, Chillingo and Curve Digital.
