[2] Beamdog initially operated as a third party digital distribution storefront for PC games by independent developers.

Originally, it was a part of Beamdog, but following the release of MDK2 for Wii, a discrete studio was founded to work on MDK2 HD.

Since 2012, the Overhaul team has also released several enhanced editions of Infinity Engine games as well.

Aspyr through its parent Embracer Group announced its acquisition of Beamdog in April 2022 for an undisclosed sum.

It also allows players access to the latest content from Beamdog, as well as a forum for testing or providing game feedback.
