Ubi Soft and Cyan Worlds, Inc. extend partnership to cover the Myst® franchise through 2008

Paris, FRANCE - October 8, 2002 - Ubi Soft® Entertainment, one of the world's largest video game publishers, announced today an agreement to extend its partnership with Cyan Worlds, Inc. to develop and publish new games for the Myst® franchise through 2008. The deal ensures that Rand Miller, co-creator of Myst and founder of Cyan Worlds, Inc., will continue to play a central role in helping Ubi Soft develop the Myst series. It also furthers Ubi Soft's ability to produce and market games for a wide audience.

"Since its first release in 1993, Myst has become one of the best-selling video games of all time. Ubi Soft continues to build on this success and has recently expanded the brand to new generation consoles," said Yves Guillemot, President and CEO of Ubi Soft Entertainment. "By renewing our partnership with Cyan Worlds, Inc., we demonstrate our long-term commitment to one of the world's leading video game brands. Working hand in hand with Cyan Worlds, Inc., we plan to continue to surprise and delight fans of the Myst series of games for years to come."

"Our partnership with Ubi Soft is exciting to us, primarily because they're excited about what Myst represents, and the potential it holds," said Rand Miller, founder of Cyan Worlds, Inc. "This isn't about Cyan Worlds making games that Ubi Soft sells, it's about Cyan Worlds and Ubi Soft working together to build new forms of entertainment around and beyond the worlds of Myst."

Presto Studios announces it will be making no more games.
