Frontier was founded in 1994 by David Braben, co-author of the seminal "Elite", to carry forward his groundbreaking work and development ethos into projects with a scale and ambition that only teams of skilled professionals can tackle.[3]
David plays a very active role in the company. With a talented team of developers and experienced managers he has helped Frontier successfully to navigate three exciting decades of the ever-changing technology landscape of mass-market gaming platforms and overseen Frontier's emergence as one of the worldwide games industry's leading independent developers.[3]
Frontier’s development strengths are immersive, fun gameplay design and unparalleled artistic quality underpinned and enabled by cutting-edge technology development and a talent for getting the best out of hardware and UI.[3]

Tencent has purchased 3.37 million newly issued ordinary shares, which will be admitted for trading on the AIM Stock Exchange. The market cap (valuation) of Frontier Developments stood at £209 million.[4]
Community manager Edward Lewis clarified "David still owns the majority of the company. The direction and operation of the business remains exactly the same. I'm not a finance/shares expert by any means, but I just wanted to step in and say that I know the above for certain, because I asked."[5]
