Sony Computer Entertainment Cambridge Studio (later known as Guerrilla Cambridge), was formed on July 4, 1997, when Sony Computer Entertainment Europe bought the Millennium development studio from CyberLife Ltd for six million pounds.[2] The developer was mainly well known for making the MediEvil series for the original PlayStation and the PSP.
