About Dynasty Studios

Dynasty Studios is an independent game developer founded in 2021, creating systems-driven multiplayer games for PC and console. Its work combines survival gameplay, emergent interactions and player-driven digital economies. The studio operates from Istanbul, following an earlier period with operations in both Copenhagen and Istanbul.

The company was established by industry veterans with experience at Danish developer Logic Artists. That background informs its focus on complex game systems, but Dynasty is a distinct company: the Expeditions series and Clandestine belong to its founders’ previous studio’s development history rather than Dynasty’s own portfolio. The Expeditions intellectual property remains owned by THQ Nordic.

Systems-driven worlds

Dynasty describes its design approach as systems-first. Rather than relying on linear, scripted sequences, it develops environments in which mechanics, economies and rules interact to produce emergent situations and stories. Its development work spans pre-production, engineering, game design, production and the architecture needed to support ongoing multiplayer operations.

Digital asset ownership is another part of this approach. The studio integrates blockchain architecture into player-driven economies, connecting the collection, creation and exchange of game resources with ownership and trading systems.

Providence and development pipeline

The studio’s flagship game in development is Providence, a third-person science-fiction multiplayer survival shooter built with Unreal Engine 5. Initially announced under the working title Project HAN, it places players in the role of Trailblazers exploring volatile alien environments called Slipworlds, fragmented around cosmic singularities.

Players scavenge rare resources, craft technology and confront extraterrestrial creatures while contending with other players. Its planned economy incorporates on-chain blueprints, raw materials and equipment, allowing players to own and trade these assets. Providence is listed on the Epic Games Store.

Alongside Providence, Dynasty is actively prototyping an unannounced second project. Its broader development focus remains on living multiplayer worlds shaped by interacting systems and player decisions.
