Award-winning creator Chris Spivey is joining Arc Dream Publishing as its new production director, a significant move that pairs a visionary of modern horror roleplaying with the publisher of the highly acclaimed Delta Green.
Spivey, the founder of Darker Hue Studios, is widely celebrated for his work on games that explore the uncanny and the unsettling. His most famous creation, Harlem Unbound, is a multi-award-winning Cthulhu Mythos roleplaying game that has been praised for its historical depth and innovative approach to cosmic horror. This track record makes him a natural fit for Arc Dream, whose flagship game, Delta Green: The Role-Playing Game, is a touchstone of the modern conspiracy-horror genre.
In the official announcement, Arc Dream Publishing’s president, Shane Ivey, highlighted the need for Spivey’s expertise. Ivey noted,
We have dozens of books in development at Arc Dream. It is long past time to bring aboard someone with the expertise and vision to keep up with all that work and keep things on track.”
He praised not only Spivey’s creative talent but also his extensive background as a program manager.
For fans of dark fantasy, the announcement also brought a welcome sign of life for a much-anticipated project. The press release confirms that The Black Company Roleplaying Game, based on Glen Cook’s novels, remains in active development. Arc Dream announced the title back in 2024, wisely stating they would not be rushed, and this latest mention assures followers that the grim and gritty world of the Company is still on its way to the tabletop.
Chris Spivey‘s portfolio is extensive, including contributions to major titles like Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Vampire: The Masquerade, and Cyberpunk Red. His appointment at Arc Dream signals a powerful reinforcement for the publisher, promising to bring his organisational and creative strengths to a packed slate of future releases.
