About The Parasight

The Parasight is an independent Polish video game development studio based in Kraków. Founded in 2019, it creates original, character-driven action-adventure games inspired by dark legends, folklore and fairy tales. Its work combines first-person action with interactive storytelling, stylized environments and atmospheric world-building.

The studio develops games using Unreal Engine, with capabilities spanning game design, gameplay programming, environment and character art, animation, visual effects and narrative design. Its creative focus includes archery combat and morality-driven progression, connecting the player's actions with the stories and worlds they explore. Original intellectual property is central to its development approach.

Games and creative direction

The studio released its debut game, BLACKTAIL, in December 2022 through a publishing partnership with Focus Entertainment. Available on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, the first-person action-adventure reimagines the origins of Baba Yaga. Its combination of folklore, archery and moral choices reflects the studio's interest in giving familiar myths new narrative and gameplay interpretations.

Its second major original property, DAVY x JONES, takes that interest into a surreal pirate afterlife known as The Locker. The action-adventure places players in control of Davy Jones's headless body alongside his severed, talking skull. The project entered Early Access in 2025 and remains in development according to the supplied research.

Across these projects, The Parasight emphasizes the relationship between character, narrative and action. Its portfolio draws on recognizable legendary figures while reshaping their settings and player roles through contemporary game mechanics. The studio's production capabilities support development from initial concepts and storytelling through technical implementation and audiovisual production.

More about The Parasight

Founder and leadership

Bartosz Kaproń founded the studio and serves as CEO and Creative Director. The founding team included developers whose previous work at Bloober Team encompassed titles such as Layers of Fear 2 and Observer; these are prior individual experience rather than studio credits.

Operating model and representation

The report states that Tencent's early-2022 minority investment provided long-term capital while preserving the studio leadership's creative autonomy, publishing rights and intellectual property ownership. The studio also signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA) to explore transmedia opportunities for its original properties.

Corporate milestone

The company transformed from a limited liability company into a Polish joint-stock company on April 22, 2021.
