Resolution Games chief creative officer and Blaston producer Mathieu Castelli added, "We’ve been playing Blaston behind-the-scenes for quite some time, and Tommy still hasn’t managed to beat me. It’s been a lot of fun. The offices have been filled with shouts of excitement during matches. There’s a real adrenaline rush that comes from the physical intensity!"
