by Rainier on Jan. 31, 2020 @ 11:37 a.m. PST

Archetype Entertainment is a game development studio in Austin, Texas led by industry veterans from BioWare and other AAA studios.

Founded in 2019, Archetype is an autonomous division of Wizards of the Coast, assembling a world-class team to build a multi-platform roleplaying game set in a new science fiction universe.

At Archetype, we believe there will always be a place for story-driven roleplaying games that put the player at the center of an epic personal narrative with impactful choices. We are building games that represent the diversity of our audience. We also believe that game studios should empower top developers and challenge them with ambitious projects that are shaped by a strong, clearly communicated creative vision.

“Archetype is a chance for us to build the type of roleplaying game that we love to play. Video games are a uniquely interactive medium. They allow us to give the player powerful choices that have real consequences on how the story unfolds,” said Head of Studiod James Ohlen.

“The tremendous opportunity and challenge we have in building a new world-class game studio isn't lost on us. We're leaning on the experience and talent of our entire team to create what we believe will be the next generation of acclaimed, narrative-driven roleplaying gamesm” stated General Manager Chad Robertson.
