Improbable Worlds Ltd., backed by SoftBank Group Corp.’s Vision Fund, said it’s in talks for major game publishers to adopt its virtual world simulation software.
The London-based startup is aiming to make an announcement “very soon,” Improbable’s co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Herman Narula said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. Improbable’s SpatialOS software, which can be used to build vast virtual worlds for massively multiplayer online games, already powers independent titles such as Bossa Studios’ Worlds Adrift and Spilt Milk Studios’ Lazarus.
