DTP Entertainment AG, initially known as DTP Neue Medien AG, was a German video game publishing firm established in 1995 by Thomas Baur and headquartered in Hamburg. It was recognized as one of the foremost game publishers in Germany, especially noted for distributing a wide range of adventure games developed domestically. Additionally, DTP functioned as a distributor within the video game industry.
In 2004, the company introduced a subsidiary named DTP Young Entertainment, which specialized in producing educational titles and software aimed at children. Later, in 2007, DTP expanded its development capabilities by acquiring 4HEAD Studios, which was subsequently renamed Cranberry Productions and located in Hannover. That same year, they launched another development branch called RealU situated in Singapore. The expansion continued in 2008 with the purchase of House of Tales, a game developer based in Bremen.
The firm filed for insolvency proceedings in 2012. Following this, several adventure game rights previously held by DTP were obtained by the Swedish publisher Nordic Games.
