T-MINUS ZERO: RELAUNCH
Today, we’re proud to share that T-Minus Zero Entertainment is officially returning - reimagined, refocused, and ready to build the next great player-driven experience.
Earlier this year, our journey with NetEase Games came to a close. Together, we accomplished something rare: a world-class team, a bold new IP, and a fully playable prototype that demonstrated both our creative and executional strength. The response from players, partners, and peers validated our belief that what we were building had genuine market potential. While shifting market conditions terminated that trajectory, they also clarified our path forward.
A small group of veteran directors & founders have acquired the T-Minus Zero Entertainment name to carry the team’s spirit forward and are relaunching as an independent production company—with a refined development model and a funding approach inspired by the independent film world: focused, project-based, and partnership-friendly.
Our New Mission
T-Minus Zero exists to create high-quality, distinctive game experiences that connect people. Our Foundation:
Veteran Talent & Leadership: A tight group of veteran technical and creative leaders, who work exceptionally well together, and have access to a vast talent network.
A Novel Gaming Experience: A genre-forward concept with strong proof-of-interest and scalability across platforms.
Clear Financing Strategy: Structured around special-purpose production entities, ensuring investor transparency, distributed risk, and rapid ROI pathways.
What’s Next
We are now seeking co-financing partners for our next round of development financing. Our immediate goal: bring our concept to full production with the right strategic allies—those who value quality gameplay-first experiences, executional excellence, and a sustainable business model.
We believe the future of independent game production will belong to studios that combine creativity with discipline, vision with accountability, and independence with smart partnerships.
