Midnight is a gaming company that emerged from stealth to build a studio and platform focused on creating never-ending stories across free-to-play and premium titles. It is developing a novel web3-based 'forging' system intended to create true interoperability and a robust player-driven economy while ensuring games are enjoyable without the NFT layer. The company was founded in late 2021 and is based in Los Angeles. Midnight now has more than 60 people working on four titles — including Legion (a 4X MMO), Next Protectors (a 2D pixel brawler), and At Your Service (a couch co-op) — and is scaling rapidly. The team is led by industry veterans including CEO Steve Wade and CTO Steven Spagnolo, with Chris Heatherly, Geoffrey Hunt and Bill Roper in senior creative and product roles. The company plans to build a vibrant slate of first- and third-party games across platforms and genres, and will release more information on its titles and platform in coming months.
