Our Services

We handle every phase of RPG production from pre-production planning to post-launch support  ensuring the final release meets both artistic and technical benchmarks.

Concept Design and World-Building

Every successful action RPG starts with a believable world. Our writers and designers collaborate to build coherent settings, character backstories, and progression systems that fit the chosen lore. We conduct audience profiling and market research to identify what motivates long-term engagement in similar titles.

Using tools like Miro and Figma, we map story arcs and game economies, then produce design documents that define combat flow, quest logic, and levelling structures. This disciplined approach allows publishers to evaluate feasibility early, keeping the creative vision aligned with production capability.

Combat System Development

An action RPG lives or dies by the quality of its combat. Our developers design real-time combat mechanics that feel fluid and responsive across multiple platforms. Using engines such as Unity and Unreal, we implement animation blending, hit detection, stamina systems, and enemy AI tuned for player satisfaction.

We also create balancing systems that keep difficulty fair without sacrificing challenge. By monitoring player test sessions and combat telemetry, we fine-tune attack windows and input response to achieve consistency. Projects following this process typically record up to 25 % higher user retention in post-launch analytics.

Character Progression and Skill Systems

Our agency engineers progression frameworks that make levelling meaningful. From skill trees to upgrade paths, we ensure that every progression choice delivers a sense of advancement.

We integrate scripting logic for passive and active abilities, build XP calculators, and ensure that balance remains intact through extensive testing. For live-service titles, we design modular progression layers that allow new abilities and equipment to be added without disrupting existing player data.

This approach keeps players invested across updates and encourages recurring in-app purchases or DLC adoption, increasing lifetime value for publishers.

Environment and Asset Production

Our art department develops detailed 3D environments and characters optimised for performance across mobile, console, and PC. Using PBR workflows and modular asset systems, we maintain high visual quality without exceeding technical budgets.

We also perform LOD (level of detail) optimisation and shader refinement to ensure consistent frame rates. Assets are produced using a unified production process that aligns with each platform’s technical guidelines, reducing rework during certification.

This meticulous process produces stable performance and shorter testing phases, helping studios maintain predictable production schedules.

Quest Design and Narrative Integration

Quest Design and Narrative Integration

The narrative structure of an action RPG defines player motivation. We write branching quest lines with clear goals, optional side objectives, and consequence-driven dialogue.

Our quest designers integrate these scripts directly into engine logic, connecting dialogue triggers, cut-scenes, and world events. By blending storytelling with gameplay, players remain connected to character increase and mission outcomes.

Titles using our structured narrative approach have seen measurable improvements in playtime duration often exceeding 30 % over their first-week baseline metrics.

Multiplayer and Online Architecture

Many action RPGs now include co-operative or competitive features. Our developers build stable networking layers for peer-to-peer and dedicated server setups.

We handle session management, matchmaking, and real-time data synchronisation through APIs compatible with AWS, PlayFab, and Photon. Each multiplayer feature is stress-tested under simulated load to ensure consistent latency performance.

Security and anti-cheat systems are embedded from the start to maintain fair gameplay. With a scalable backend architecture, our clients can accommodate success without major redevelopment later.

Monetisation and Economy Systems

Monetisation and Economy Systems

An action RPG’s economic structure determines its commercial success. We design balanced in-game economies that integrate with microtransactions, cosmetic systems, or expansion content.

Our analysts use historical data to calculate price elasticity, drop rates, and currency sinks that maintain fairness while generating sustained revenue. We integrate purchase verification and regional pricing logic to comply with global store regulations.

By planning monetisation architecture early, our clients typically reduce post-launch adjustment costs by 20 % and maintain player satisfaction through transparent reward cycles.

Quality Assurance, Testing, and Post-Launch Support

Every RPG must perform consistently across devices and updates. Our QA engineers conduct regression testing, localisation checks, and gameplay stress tests to identify issues before release.

We use automated test suites to simulate thousands of play sessions and manual testing for subjective assessments like camera feel and animation quality.

After launch, our support team monitors analytics dashboards for crash reports, frame-time anomalies, and progression bugs. Regular patches and balance updates keep the community active and positive.

Clients who maintain post-launch update schedules within 60-day intervals often experience longer retention curves and improved community sentiment.
