Company mission
Work on ground-breaking multiplayer titles, push the boundaries of games technology and virtual worlds, or get to grips with some of the world’s toughest security challenges. If your ambitions are high, we’ll give you the tools, support and culture to take them even higher.
Our take
Improbable originally started out to make games, but then realised the underlying technology they were building could be used for more than just gaming. Over the last few years, they have been working on a very ambitious plan to create totally immersive, persistent virtual worlds, and in doing so, change how we make decisions.
They have raised funding from some of the most deep-pocketed investors in the world, giving them the resources to grow a large and talented team.
Their big ambition to create virtual worlds has come under pressure recently, as they haven't been able to commercialise any of their products on a large scale. Off the back of 2022 VC funding, they're now re-focusing on areas where they know they can be successful, namely gaming.
