WHO ARE WE?

Imagine if the developers of some of the best video games in the world got together to build the ultimate social game experiences. As game developers, we love creating real-world impact through games. Over the course of our combined century of experience, there are ways we’d like to make games a little differently.

Think of us as classically trained with an edge .

BUILDING A GAME THAT BUILDS

Games are the fastest way to teach anybody anything. Games are also the most powerful way to bring strangers together to forge lifelong friendships. We humans need more, not less, connection in our increasingly isolated world, and yet most video games that come to market pit people against each other in combat. Here at Unleashed, we use deeply understood social science to create games where players connect in our game to work together to save the world.

A MISSION UNLEASHED

Imagine a game where you face moral dilemmas, challenging boundaries, and driving epic quests. Our mission is to create deep, dynamic worlds with immersive stories and an opportunity to forge friendships between strangers, while also deepening your relationships with those you know and love.

But instead of building this world in a vacuum, we want to develop alongside you. Embark on this journey with us as we redefine how video games are made.

Expect subversion, revolution, immersion.

Our games are built on the backbone of incredible social experiences like you’ve never seen. By driving the creation of great friendships, our team aims to make a game greater than we've ever imagined. Our team of talented designers, engineers, and artists come together to create thrilling experience that transport players to new worlds, challenge their resolve, and immerse them in unforgettable adventures.

A fusion of experience + AI

ELEMENTS OF THE DRAGON

TRANSPARENCY

Transparency isn’t just a buzz word, it’s a way of operating. It’s being honest and open with the team as they are also investors, with their time and energy. We are all business partners. It’s time to act like it.

COMMUNITY

We are more guild than company. Community not only drives our gameplay, but how we operate, and how we grow. We are here as a collective working toward a common purpose: making the best game we can imagine.

RESPECT

Respect is fundamental - from working internally as a team to how we treat our players. Respect runs deep in our veins and our being. And the best way to show respect is to listen.

AGILITY

Scrappy excellence drives our decisionmaking. We ask ourselves: What’s the least amount of work we can do to learn the most? How quickly can we learn to make a better next decision? Our agility reduces the time between every iteration.
