Overview edit · view history

GSP is the UK's leading consumer software publisher with a range of over 400 CD-ROM titles aimed at the home/small office computer user, many of which dominate the UK CD-ROM industry charts.

Since its formation in 1994, the company philosophy has been based around developing and publishing quality PC CD-ROM software, sold at competitive, value for money prices. The company has grown steadily over the years and now publishes a diverse portfolio of titles on behalf of some of the world's best known brands.

In 2001, Global Software Publishing acquired the rights to publish Dorling Kindersley's range of educational titles.

On 3 May 2007, Avanquest Software announced to have taken over EMME Interactive, which also owned GSP in the UK. That way, GSP was absorbed into Avanquest.

All further game releases were published under the GSP Software publishing label until Avanquest Software Ltd was acquired by Maximum Games in 2016.
