Fantastic Pixel Castle
Fantastic Pixel Castle (FPC) is a new studio founded in 2023 to create our take on a modernized fantasy MMORPG, codenamed Ghost.
If you are interested in our studio, there is more context below. If you just care about Ghost, we totally get it, and you can jump to it
HERE
.
We are committed to being a fully remote and global studio, so that we can hire world-class people and have them live their best lives.
We think top-heavy bureaucracy stifles creativity, so we aim to stay small as we focus on delivering a game and a world that you will love.
We are fully-funded, and the team will share in all of our studio's successes.
While announced as an independent studio, Fantastic Pixel Castle already has some serious backing, as Chinese tech conglomerate NetEase has also announced a partnership with the budding studio, suggesting significant backing for and confidence in the the project. Several other former Blizzard/Riot developers have also announced their participation, including
Content Design Director Candace Thomas
,
UX Director Ed Altorfer
,
Art Director David Kubalak
, and
more
!
While not yet having a lot of specific information to share, the website already contains some concept art and design philosophy notes, as well as information on their growing team.

WHEN WHERE AND HOW CAN I PLAY
Our goal is to move as quickly as we can in development, and we have many advantages that will help us bring Ghost to you faster than is typical for AAA games. We will also include you early in development and are committed to making even major changes based on your feedback. We will bounce ideas off of interested players from time to time, and when we are ready for playtesters, we will absolutely make sure you know.
Our initial development efforts are focused on PC, and ideally we will ship on consoles as well. We plan to ship our game globally and to localize into many languages.
And while it is too soon to go into a lot of detail about our business model (and seriously, it is still evolving), don't worry about excessive gacha mechanics, endless loot boxes, pay to win or the like. We want you to feel good about investing your time and money in this experience.
We are unbelievably excited about the opportunity to make this game for you and with you.
