Digimancy Entertainment

Digimancy Entertainment is an independent video game development studio founded in late 2019 by veterans of computer role-playing game development. Based in Columbus, Ohio, it operates as a fully remote, distributed team. Its work centers on narrative-driven RPGs and RPG hybrids, combining original game development with external co-development for other studios and publishers.

The studio follows a narrative-first design approach: character and story experiences provide the starting point, with gameplay mechanics developed to reinforce player choice and narrative consequences. Its creative approach draws on tabletop RPG traditions, emphasizing world-building, branching cause and effect, and replayability. Narrative design, collaborative storytelling, quest design, systems engineering, and gameplay mechanics contribute to this focus on games that respond meaningfully to players’ decisions.

Original development and collaboration

Digimancy maintains a dual business model, developing its own intellectual properties while providing specialized development support to external partners. Its services span full-cycle game development, writing, world conception, level design, and quest design. The studio works within the PC and console gaming markets.

Its supported studio credits include Avowed, the first-person fantasy action RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Xbox Game Studios, on which Digimancy contributed co-development and development support. Alongside this collaborative work, the studio is developing an unannounced single-player RPG based on original intellectual property and pursuing concepts across the RPG and RPG-hybrid spectrum.

The founding team’s background includes earlier collaboration at Obsidian Entertainment and inXile Entertainment. That experience forms part of Digimancy’s origins; those earlier games are the founders’ historical work rather than productions credited to the studio itself.
