Ramen VR

Ramen VR is an independent game and developer-tools company founded in 2019. Its work spans cross-platform virtual reality games, multiplayer online systems and AI-assisted development for interactive 3D environments. Increasingly using the trading name Ramen, the company has expanded from building immersive games into tools that automate work inside Unreal Engine and Unity.

The studio became known for Zenith: The Last City, an open-world VR MMORPG released in January 2022 for Meta Quest, SteamVR and PlayStation VR. The project brought players across these platforms into a shared online world and reached the top of the Steam and Meta Quest charts at launch. Its development combined multiplayer networking with the technical demands of delivering a persistent virtual world across different VR systems.

In 2024, the company reorganized the game into Zenith: Nexus, pairing the free-to-play procedural action RPG Zenith: Infinite Realms with The Last City as paid downloadable content. New content development stopped in July 2024. As of November 2026, the company remains active, while the Zenith live service is approaching its announced conclusion: sales ended on October 21, free downloads are scheduled to end on November 18, and servers are scheduled to close on December 18, 2026.

AI-assisted game development

The company's newer product, Aura, was introduced under the earlier product name Telos. It is an AI agent designed to automate Unreal Engine Blueprints, C++ code and 3D level assembly, with support extending across Unreal Engine and Unity. This work builds on the studio's experience creating interactive worlds while addressing development tasks within game engines.

Ramen acquired Coplay in March 2026, bringing in the team behind an open-source Unity Model Context Protocol server. The acquisition supported Aura's expansion into cross-engine workflows. Together, the company's game development background and growing tooling business connect multiplayer production experience with automation for developers working on games and other interactive 3D projects.
