Unbound Games, the studio established by legendary game designer Shinji Mikami, widely recognized as the creator of the Resident Evil series, is actively engaged in the development of its inaugural AAA title.
This ambitious project is based on an entirely new intellectual property and is being developed using Unreal Engine 5, targeting both consoles and PC platforms.
Mikami founded Unbound Games in May 2023 and holds the position of director. The studio currently employs approximately 50 professionals, with strategic plans to expand its team significantly to around 150 members in the future.
Unbound Games positions itself as a fully independent company dedicated to crafting high-budget, original gaming experiences for a broad global audience. While their primary focus is on AAA projects, the studio also intends to explore and develop more modest-scale games concurrently in the future.
The team at Unbound Games boasts a wealth of experience, with key personnel having contributed to acclaimed series and games such as Silent Hill, Shadow of the Colossus, Hi-Fi Rush, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Devil May Cry, and various installments within the Resident Evil universe. Masato Kimura, a long-standing collaborator of Mikami’s, serves as a crucial producer within the studio.
