About Arcadia Byte Studios
Founded in 2016, Arcadia Byte Studios is a London-based independent game development studio dedicated to creating immersive, innovative gaming experiences that captivate players worldwide.
Our Story
Arcadia Byte Studios was born from a simple belief: that games can be art, that interactive entertainment can move people in ways no other medium can, and that the best games are those that respect their players' intelligence and time.
Co-founders Alexander Whitmore and Marcus Holloway met while working at major studios, where they witnessed firsthand both the incredible potential and the frustrating limitations of AAA game development. They founded Arcadia Byte to create a different kind of studio — one where creative vision takes precedence over market trends, where quality trumps quantity, and where every team member has a voice in shaping the games they make.
From our modest beginnings in a converted warehouse to our current home in the heart of London's tech district, we've grown from a team of 5 passionate developers to a studio of over 60 talented individuals. But our core values remain unchanged: make games we're proud of, treat our players with respect, and never stop learning.
Our Mission
To create unforgettable gaming experiences that push the boundaries of interactive storytelling, technical innovation, and artistic expression. We strive to make games that not only entertain but inspire, challenge, and leave lasting impressions on players around the world.
Our Vision
To be recognized as one of the world's most innovative and player-focused independent game studios, known for taking creative risks, delivering exceptional quality, and fostering a culture where talented developers can do their best work. We envision a future where indie games are celebrated alongside AAA titles for their artistic and cultural contributions.
Our Values
