Company mission
To build the next reality featuring an infinite universe where millions of people can build new lives together in massively multiplayer online roleplaying games.
Our take
The rise of cross-platform, multiplayer gaming, coupled with Virtual Reality’s entrance into the mainstream, makes this an extremely exciting time for gaming studios. Zenith (formerly Ramen VR) might be the most ambitious studio of all right now, with its intention to create open, interconnected, gaming worlds.
The 2019-founded company has enjoyed record breaking success since releasing its flagship title, Zenith: The Lost City, in early 2022. It became the best selling game on Steam, Oculus Rift, and Oculus Quest, and was the first cross-platform VR MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing games) available on all major gaming systems.
With the runaway success of Zenith and the steady release of updates (including an AI-powered voice moderator for Zenith's chatrooms, that weeds out racist and homophobic behavior), the company has since secured major investment. It intends to use this to expand its relatively small studio and continue attempting to realize its vision of creating an infinite gaming universe.

Benefits
- Create the next reality: Every startup claims they are changing the world. How often do you find one that's building an entirely new reality? Also, we're such a small team, that you'll be working from and learning directly from the founders every day.
- We Love Games: Have a favorite game coming out? Take a day off on launch day. We'll even buy you the deluxe version of the game. Play the game, and just do a short write-up to teach us what you learned. Want to attend PAX or E3? Once a year, we'll schedule a corporate trip for anyone who wants to go and hang out, while working together.
- Work Remotely: Need to walk the dog, take care of your kids, or just want to live where you are? Work remotely from anywhere in the world.
- Company Game Jams: About once per quarter, travel somewhere in the world with us, and live in a big house together for a week, all expenses paid. Spend time working, playing games, exploring a new country, and growing together.
