About That’s No Moon
That’s No Moon is an independent AAA game development and transmedia company founded in 2021 by veteran creators with backgrounds across studios including Naughty Dog, Infinity Ward, Sony Santa Monica Studio, Bungie, and Electronic Arts. The Los Angeles-based team develops narrative-driven, single-player action-adventure experiences that bring together cinematic storytelling, character development, and high-fidelity interactive production.
The studio combines game development with an in-house performance-capture capability. Its production approach includes performance and motion capture, photogrammetry, 3D character work, animation, technical art, and Unreal Engine 5 pipelines. The team also develops gameplay systems spanning traversal, movement, tactical combat, and its Adaptive Cover mechanic, designed to connect environmental movement and cover with cinematic action.
Development focus
That’s No Moon offers full-cycle AAA development, with capabilities across:
- Narrative design, writing, and cinematic direction
- Performance-capture and motion-capture production
- Character modeling, rigging, and animation
- Technical art and engine-systems development
- World building for next-generation console and PC games
The company operates with a distributed, remote-friendly model alongside its Los Angeles development and capture hub. Its performance-capture facilities have also supported external production work, including three episodes of Amazon Prime Video’s animated anthology Secret Level.
Debut project
In June 2026, the studio revealed Crossfire, its debut single-player tactical action-adventure game in development with Unreal Engine 5. The project follows opposing operators Layla Qassem and Delroy Cross as they enter a fragile alliance, and showcases the studio’s Adaptive Cover system. Crossfire is backed by Smilegate, with Tencent’s Team K1 partnered for PC publishing.
Smilegate Holdings has provided strategic equity backing and project financing, while That’s No Moon remains an independent game studio.
