Liithos is a AAA gaming and entertainment studio founded by high-profile industry veterans, including former PlayStation executive Michael Mumbauer and John Garvin, the creative director and writer known for blockbuster titles including Days Gone and Syphon Filter. The studio develops narrative-driven, transmedia intellectual properties that merge compelling storytelling with the capabilities of Web3 technology.
The studio’s debut project is Ashfall, a post-apocalyptic open-world game set in the Pacific Northwest. It is designed to begin as a single-player, story-focused experience that will later evolve to include multiplayer PvP and PvE elements. Liithos has chosen the Hedera network as the foundational public ledger for Ashfall and its future projects. This integration will power the game's economy, allowing players to truly own their in-game assets—such as weapons, gear, and cosmetics—as digital collectibles.
Supported by The HBAR Foundation, Liithos emphasizes that its approach is not "play-to-earn" but "play-and-own," focusing on enhancing the core AAA gaming experience rather than financial speculation.
