About Heroic Labs

Heroic Labs is an enterprise open-core software company that builds developer tools for the games and entertainment industry. Our flagship project is an open-source cloud-agnostic game server called Nakama.

We've added two supporting products called Hiro (a meta game framework) as well as Satori, a LiveOps system to help game studios deliver highly personalizable game experiences to their players.

Heroic Labs also provides managed infrastructure to run Nakama/Satori on behalf of game studios and media companies. There is also a proprietary version called Nakama Enterprise for large enterprises to deploy in their own datacenter, as well as custom infrastructure for private cloud deployments.

We work with different size companies ranging from small startups, mid-size game studios, public-listed games companies, and Fortune 500 companies. This means that Nakama (and suite of products) have been battle-tested at various scales and use cases.
