Five years building Decimated left us with a production-tested infrastructure layer for large open worlds, multiplayer and live service. Your studio can now license it instead of rebuilding it.
Every mechanic below ships in Decimated, a live multiplayer PvPvE open-world survival RPG built in Unreal Engine 5 with C++ and Blueprints. Five years of human engineering, hundreds of thousands of downloads and tens of thousands of registered players.
One-minute video: the open-world tech behind Decimated, a live multiplayer game. Ten gameplay feature groups, fifteen production systems and five years of human engineering, available to license from Fracture Labs.
A persistent, multiplayer open-world survival RPG where players, factions and AI share the same world.
Hundreds of mission variations that give players a reason to cross the map, fight and trade.
Dozens of weapons with a full third-person shooter feel, from hip-fire to scoped shots.
A third-person character controller built for traversal across large, vertical maps.
Dozens of drivable vehicles with physics, passengers and persistent ownership.
Survival pressure and a player-driven economy that keep a persistent world moving.
The social and server layer a live multiplayer game needs from day one.
Large, living open worlds with multiple maps and biomes, ready to reskin or extend.
Long-term progression and rewards that bring players back to a live game.
A complete, shipped game UI, from world map to mission tracking.
Modular, production-ready systems that power large persistent multiplayer worlds. Each plate of the world is one system. Pick one to lift it out.
Drag the world to turn it. The cyan core is the shared state layer every system writes to.
The platform is being designed for persistent worlds that AI agents can enter. Agents compete, trade, run tasks and generate content inside live economies, and players direct them as strategists, commanders and creators.
Players assign objectives, risk profiles and strategies to their agents.
Agents enter missions, faction wars, markets or creator ecosystems.
Agents complete tasks, fight, scavenge, trade and optimise.
The economy measures cost, rewards, asset demand and player value.
Agents build history, traits, reputation and strategic advantage, then the loop runs again.
We build real-time simulations of how a game economy behaves under pressure: player and agent activity, mission rewards, currency flow and market demand. Balance, retention and monetisation get tuned before deployment.
This is a simplified live model. Missions and faction wars mint currency, the market moves it between actors, and sinks burn a share of every trade. Try flooding it.
Built by a team with pedigree from AAA videogame studios.
A live multiplayer world with missions, NPCs, three player factions, squads and voice chat, vehicle physics, jetpacks, parkour and a wide weapon set. Multiple industry awards.
The same technology layer that runs Decimated is being expanded for developer licensing, ready for your studio to build on.
Building this layer in-house takes years of production time and millions in budget, before any content work begins.
| Scenario | Dev time | Est. cost |
|---|---|---|
| Extremely optimistic | 2.5 yrs | ~$4.5M |
| Realistic production cycle | 3.5 yrs | ~$6.3M |
| Industry typical (AA open world) | 4–5 yrs | $7.2M–$9M+ |
| Fracture Labs investment to date | 5+ yrs | ~$7.5M |
| Studio type | Monthly burn |
|---|---|
| Indie Unreal Engine team | $80k–120k |
| AA online game team | $250k–600k |
| AAA live-service team | $1M+ |
| Fracture Labs production team | ~$50k–150k |

Persistent worlds, factions, rewards, identity and ownership.
Autonomous entities that act, compete and transact inside worlds.
Fracture Labs is a game technology studio founded in 2018. It licenses the infrastructure behind Decimated, its live open-world multiplayer game, so other studios can build persistent worlds, multiplayer and live-service games without developing the core systems from scratch.
Fifteen integrated, production-ready systems: progression, resources, loot and drops, skills, trading, combat, inventory, AI behaviour, spawning, social, economy, crafting, quests, exploration and timers, all writing to a shared persistent state layer.
Building comparable open-world infrastructure from scratch typically takes 5 to 8 years. Studios building on the Fracture Labs platform target 12 to 24 months to a shippable persistent world.
Industry-typical AA open-world infrastructure takes 4 to 5 years and roughly $7.2M to $9M or more. Fracture Labs has invested about $7.5M over 5+ years building its platform.
Full source access rather than an SDK or black box; a massively multiplayer-ready open-world client and server architecture; client and server build automation ready to plug into your build pipeline; the complete engineering history with version control and linked issue tracking; production-scale template projects. Everything was built by human engineers over 5+ years, before AI code generation. Detailed codebase metrics are available under NDA.
There are three tiers: Entry license, Core platform and Strategic partner. Each is quoted per project based on scope, team size and target platforms.
Yes. It runs Decimated, live since 2024, with missions, NPCs, three player factions, squads and voice chat, vehicle physics, jetpacks, parkour and a wide weapon set. Decimated has 400,000 downloads and multiple industry awards.
Everything that ships in Decimated: PvPvE combat with dozens of weapons, hundreds of mission variations, multiple factions with reputation, a third-person parkour controller with jetpacks, dozens of drivable vehicles, survival systems, a player economy with trading and a marketplace, squads with proximity voice chat, large open-world maps with dynamic sandstorms, progression and leaderboards, and a complete game UI.
The platform was built for Decimated, an Unreal Engine 5 open-world game, and Fracture Labs also works across Unity for optimization projects.
