Studio Manifesto
We are here to serve the gamer with awesome games.
BattleForged Game studio is a Haarlem-based game developer. Our story began as a group of friends who simply loved to play together. We share a passion for discovery, competition, and creativity. Especially within the worlds of fantasy; combat, survival, and crafting. Each of us play differently, but we all value the same thing: meaningful gameplay that respects the player.
At BFGS, our vision is to create worlds where the worlds of fantasy come together in unique, player-driven experiences. Our current project Realm of Aeris combines detailed 3D low polygon artistry to bring something fresh to the gaming landscape.
As we grow, our goal is to strengthen the Dutch games industry, nurture new talent, and build a studio culture where we empower creativity so that players feel truly connected to the adventures we craft.
