MATABOO

Studio Overview

MATABOO is a Warsaw-based technical engineering studio specializing in high-difficulty software development for the global video game industry. Founded in 2019 by industry veterans, the studio has established itself as a go-to partner for AAA, AA, and independent developers, focusing on the complex technical aspects of game production that require deep architectural expertise. While the studio maintains a playful internal culture—with leadership adopting titles like "Company Hegemon" and "Code Shaman"—it is recognized for its rigorous approach to systems programming, performance optimization, and multi-platform engineering.

Core Capabilities

MATABOO operates as a technical extension of its clients' internal teams, providing specialized services that bridge the gap between concept and final release. Their engineering focus includes:

• Co-Development & Systems Engineering: Supporting gameplay mechanics, multiplayer networking, and content pipeline integration.
• Platform Porting: Expert adaptation of titles across PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and cloud-based platforms.
• Remastering & Modernization: Full-cycle development for legacy titles, including visual enhancements, UI overhauls, and architectural updates.
• Technical Optimization: Deep-level performance tuning, including CPU/GPU profiling, memory management, and multi-threading optimization to ensure compliance with platform-specific technical requirements (TRC/TCR).

Virtual Production

Beyond interactive entertainment, MATABOO leverages its expertise in Unreal Engine to support the broadcast and television industry. The studio designs and implements real-time XR virtual sets and stages, providing technical workflows that enable broadcasters to integrate digital environments into live television production.

Corporate Ecosystem

MATABOO is an independent, privately held Polish company. It maintains a close relationship with the affiliated studio Black Drakkar Games, which shares the same headquarters in the historic Fort Mokotów complex in Warsaw. While Black Drakkar focuses on original game production, MATABOO provides the technical foundation and engineering capacity that supports a wide range of high-profile industry projects.
