Description

Gardens Interactive is a distributed games studio from developers of games like Journey, What Remains of Edith Finch, Sky: Children of the Light, Blaseball, Dustforce, Guild Wars 2, Firewatch, and more. We’re named after the games we grow together — lush, living worlds that bring players together to cultivate lasting friendships. Worlds that offer surprising multiplayer experiences and flourish with the help of their communities.

Our upcoming flagship game is a shared fantasy adventure inspired by some of our favorite memories playing online games, particularly moments shared with strangers. Players will find themselves crossing paths in a shapeshifting, unpredictable wilderness filled with mystery and magic, featuring a timeless visual direction and tactile multiplayer play.

It’s the world we want to adventure in every day.
