Cybernetic Walrus

What Cybernetic Walrus does

Cybernetic Walrus is a privately held indie game studio and 3D content provider founded in 2017 and headquartered in Antwerp, Belgium, with 11–50 employees operating under a hybrid onsite policy. The studio develops and self-publishes original game IP across simulation, horror, VR/MR, and racing genres on the Unity engine, using Photon for multiplayer networking. Its published and in-development portfolio includes Roadside Research (a 1–4 player co-op gas station simulator with an alien-invasion theme), Order 13 (a simulation horror warehouse game), Does it Stack (a physics-based mixed-reality puzzle title on Meta Quest), and Antigraviator (a futuristic antigravity racing game).

The company operates three distinct revenue streams. First, consumer game sales through global digital storefronts including Steam, Xbox, Meta Quest, and an upcoming day-one inclusion on Xbox Game Pass for Roadside Research in Q1 2026 on a one-time license and subscription basis. Second, B2B 3D asset pack sales via Epic Games' Fab.com marketplace, offering modular Unreal Engine-compatible meshes and prefabs for warehouses, factories, grocery stores, and skate parks. Third, professional services delivering custom VR/AR applications, mixed-reality experiences, and digital twins for enterprise clients.

The enterprise client base is diversified across gaming studios (I-Illusions, Foampunch Studios, A-Team Productions), entertainment and media (Tomorrowland, Koekentref!), telecom (Telenet), energy (OTARY-Rentel), networking (Extreme Networks), education (Scholengroop 20), and industrial training (CLW Oostende). Cybernetic Walrus is independently owned with no disclosed funding, parent company, or external investors, and maintains an active hiring program across engineering, art, and production roles to support its upcoming launch and services pipeline.
