Company mission

To pioneer in the creation of top-tier cross-platform action RPG games.

Our take

Spectarium is an ambitious new game development company building cross-platform action RPGs. With an innovative approach, the newcomer is blending AI-driven creativity and storytelling to offer players highly personalised and endlessly customisable gameplay experiences.

Its primary focus is on its upcoming RPG title, "Myths", which is scheduled for a soft launch in 2024. The company's vision is to create games tailored to the preferences of each player, where AI serves as the backbone of the narrative, dynamically adjusting the storyline based on player choices and the evolving game world. "Myths" is centered around a mythological theme, promising to immerse players in a world where storytelling and gameplay seamlessly meld.

Founded by a team consisting of individuals with backgrounds in industry giants like EA, Epic Games, Riot Games, and Square Enix, Spectarium brings a wealth of expertise to the table. The company's journey is marked not only by talent but also by financial backing, as it recently closed a successful seed round. With this strong foundation, Spectarium is poised to excel in this exciting new era of gaming.
