What Farom Studio does

Farom Studio is a London-based game development and outsourcing studio founded in 2011 by Konstantine Lisetskiy (CEO & Co-Founder) and Vladimir Belousov (Co-Founder & Lead 3D Artist). The company spent its first decade building its own games before pivoting in 2021 to operate as an outsourcing studio, providing professional services to external game studios, publishers, and independent developers worldwide.

Its service portfolio is organized into four categories: Game Development and Programming (Unreal Engine UE3 through UE5, Unity, CryEngine, platform porting, backend, and custom solutions), Game Art and Graphics (concept art, 3D modeling and animation, level design, UI/UX, sound design), Project Management and Coordination (full-cycle development, co-development, enterprise solutions), and Custom Services (VR/AR, metaverse, QA, game support). The company leverages cross-engine expertise as a core capability, with credited work spanning licensed franchises (Goat Simulator, Goat Simulator Remastered, Agony VR, EVAC VR) and original IPs (Lost Region, Animo Stars Arena, Space Tourism, Subverses).

Farom generates revenue through project-based professional services contracts sold via direct engagement with game studios and publishers, with no publicly disclosed pricing. In 2024 the company received an Unreal Dev Grant from Epic Games and launched the Modern Weapon Pack Vol.1 on Epic's Fab marketplace, representing its first move into a digital-asset product line. Ownership appears founder-held, with no disclosed venture capital or private equity backing beyond an early $350K funding round in 2017.

Broad incumbents

Direct peers

• Saber Interactive: Saber Interactive is a co-development and porting specialist known for high-profile remasters and ports (e.g., The Witcher 3 on Switch, Crysis Remastered). Farom's work on Goat Simulator and Goat Simulator Remastered places it in the same co-development and porting niche.

• Lemon Sky Studios: Lemon Sky Studios is a game art and co-development outsourcing studio working on AAA projects. It competes with Farom in art services and engine-based development.

Others

• Plarium: Plarium is a game developer and publisher with internal outsourcing operations; it represents a potential client-side counterpart rather than a direct competitor, useful for sizing the demand side of Farom's market.
