MultiVersus production director Justin Fischer and technical director Brock Feldman are founding members of Airlock Games, having previously worked on Disney Infinity and Medal of Honor. Fischer and Feldman plan to focus on making smaller games faster rather than diving back into AAA games.

We're excited to have the freedom to take creative risks, push boundaries, and tell stories that AAA productions can't.”

The first game from Airlock Games is already on its way. This is a simulation management horror game called What did the stars forget?and it uses old-school 16-bit graphics.
