About Fenris Creations

Fenris Creations is an independent video game developer headquartered in Reykjavík, Iceland, with studios in London and Shanghai. Founded in 1997, the studio is renowned for creating deep, player-driven virtual worlds that connect communities across the globe.

Fenris Creations rose to international acclaim with the launch of EVE Online in 2003, a groundbreaking MMORPG that redefined emergent gameplay and player-driven storytelling. Since then, the company has continued to push boundaries through ambitious game development, technological innovation and immersive online experiences.

At Fenris Creations, we believe great virtual worlds are built through collaboration, curiosity, and courage. We create an environment where respect, open dialogue, and creativity thrive, empowering both our teams and our players to shape meaningful experiences together.

Now independently owned once again as of May 2026, Fenris Creations continues its mission to pioneer the future of virtual worlds and online games.

Our name draws inspiration from Norse mythology and honors the studio’s very first published game concept, Hættuspilið (“Danger Game”), created in 1997.
