Propaganda Games was a video game development company located in Vancouver, Canada. Established in April 2005 by Josh Holmes, it was purchased within the same year by Disney Interactive Studios, the gaming division of the Walt Disney Company. The studio ceased operations in January 2011.

History

In April 2005, Buena Vista Games launched Propaganda Games, recruiting former staff from EA Canada. By May 2005, the studio had acquired the license for Turok, which was later released in 2008 for contemporary gaming consoles. Although a follow-up title was under development, it was ultimately canceled due to workforce reductions.

Following the completion of Tron: Evolution and the termination of a planned Pirates of the Caribbean project, Disney decided to close Propaganda Games in January 2011.
