The Tau Experiment is planned to have an initial release in January 2025 at the earliest. In addition, multiple DLC expansions are planned that will expand the story further. More information about the DLC will come at a later date. The game will be released using Steam Playtesting in late 2024.

The Tau Experiment was envisioned from the start to be a mix of RPG, adventure, and puzzle-solving. It also has elements of escape room games. We came up with the concept of The Tau Experiment after playing through Alien Isolation, Prey, Escape Simulator, The Stanley Parable, Portal, and SOMA. We started brainstorming ideas on what it would be like to combine elements of all those games into one. Thus, The Tau Experiment was born.

The Tau Experiment has since evolved into an MMORPG with inspiration drawn from many places. You'll experience thousands of quests, an engaging end-game experience, and so much more.

We're always looking for innovative ways of doing things, and The Tau Experiment as our first game is our crowning achievement.
