About Us
The people who wake the toys.
We challenge the norms of media and make our brand an inseparable piece of people's lives, inspiring the world to look to our stories and characters for self-reflection, growth, and joy.
About
Independent by design. Fan-obsessed by nature.
Founded in 2020, Mob went from a debut indie horror game to one of the most-watched entertainment IPs of the decade — without a publisher, without outside pressure, and without losing the plot.
We own our IP, fund our own development, and answer to the fans first. That independence is why the franchise still feels handmade at 100M+ players.
Who we are
The best idea ships, no matter whose it is.
