Small team.
Old stories.
New screens.

Permanent Way is an independent game and animation studio. We started as a video game developer and grew an animation department alongside it; the two now share one pipeline.

The same well, every time.

We've shipped 20 games to the domestic market and 12 internationally, and our films have been recognised at festivals from Cannes onward. The thread through all of it is the same: the myths of Mesopotamia and Persia, told for people who've never heard them.

Mehran's lion crest, Sepehr's island, the carved city of Petra — they come from stories our grandparents told. We build them so they can be walked through, fought in, and watched at ninety minutes a sitting.

“We wanted a sword that felt heavy and a city that felt old. Everything else followed from those two rules.”

What we make.

Games

Action-adventures for consoles and PC, and a twenty-year back catalogue of detective stories, puzzles and strategy.

See the games

Animation

Feature-length 3D films written and produced in-house, sharing characters and worlds with the game team.

What we care about.

The studio runs on four things. Everything we make has to pass all four.

Creativity

Ideas come first. We build the tools to serve them, not the other way round.

Agility

Small teams that can change direction in a week, not a quarter.

Talent

We hire for craft and curiosity, then get out of the way.

Storytelling

Games and films are how we retell the stories we grew up with.

Twenty years in short.
