Moon Studios is an independent video game development studio, founded in 2010 by Thomas Mahler and Gennadiy Korol. 

Moon Studios partnered with Microsoft to publish their first titles: In 2015, Moon Studios released Ori and the Blind Forest, which quickly became a critical darling and a huge commercial success. In 2016 they released the Ori and the Blind Forest Definitive Edition and ultimately followed up with their sequel, Ori and the Will of the Wisps in 2020. The sequel once again became a critical and commercial breakthrough title. 

The studio has won numerous awards for their work on the Ori series, including winning Best Art Direction at the 2015 Game Awards, a BAFTA and many others. 

In 2018, Moon Studios announced that they partnered with Private Division to publish their new project. 

Moon Studios mainly focuses on highly refined gameplay mechanics within its products and prides itself on an excessive ‘iterative polish’ process. Moon Studios was one of the first development studios in the industry to work fully remote: All team members are spread throughout the world, allowing Moon to work with the best and most talented people in the games industry.
