IDI Exterior Studios, usually known as IDI Ext., is a division of Infinite Development Incorporated that was founded in 2019. The group is made up of other triple-A developers that have signed into publishing agreements with IDI. The group was founded after Ultima Games and Prime Studios entered publishing contracts with IDI. Unlike IDI Interior Studios and League Industries, none of the developers are owned by IDI and are free to terminate their agreements whenever they see fit. These studios are able to develop games and media related to them without the consent of IDI. The companies also have the ability to consult with IDI for assistance on their own projects.
