The first video-game built using technology developed by Improbable Worlds Ltd., the virtual reality startup backed by SoftBank Group Corp., has been released by British
developer Bossa Studios.
Worlds Adrift uses Improbable’s SpatialOS software, which lets programmers create realistic simulations of massive scale and complexity and run across a cloud-computing network. Softbank acquired a non-controlling stake in London-based Improbable for $502 million in May 2017 in a deal that valued the company at more than $1 billion. Bossa Studios itself has received more than
$10 million in funding from firms that include Atomico and London Venture Partners.
