Outerdawn

Outerdawn is an independent video game developer and publisher based in Auckland, New Zealand. Its work spans mobile games and PC strategy experiences, with a focus on mid-core role-playing games, tactical combat, puzzle RPGs, and simulation. The studio develops and publishes its own titles and supports released games through live operations, content updates, and community events.

The business was incorporated as Artrix Limited in November 2014 and changed its registered name to Outerdawn Limited in April 2020. Its earlier catalogue includes casual games and mobile card titles, while its later work expands into dark fantasy tactical role-playing and desktop city-building games. Titles originally developed under the Artrix name form part of the same company's history.
