A group of ex-Bizarre Creations staff have formed a new studio called Lucid Games.
The new company hopes to create at least 50 jobs for former Bizarre employees.
"The idea is to take the spirit of Bizarre Creations and see if we can improve on that," Wallace told The Liverpool Daily Post, before going into a bit more detail about the feeling surrounding the Bizarre closure.
"People were aware there were going to be cuts. But the closure of the studio just wasn't expected at all. Most people didn't want to move away from the area, even though they're well-placed to go and work in Seattle or Canada."
Lucid's commercial director, Andy Davidson backed up Wallace's sentiments.
"We know people are being targeted by headhunters and being asked about moving, particularly to Canada," he said.
"We want to get back to the levels of innovation and creativity at Bizarre that made Activision so keen to acquire it."
According to the The Liverpool Daily Post, Lucid is close to securing contracts that will allow them to grow the business and it will be present at GDC next week.
