Day 4 Night Studios is an independent game development studio established in October 2024, with a dual presence in Los Angeles, California, and Milan, Italy. The company was founded by a team of decorated industry veterans, notably Christian Cantamessa, the former Lead Designer and Writer for 'Red Dead Redemption', and Davide Soliani, the Creative Director behind the 'Mario + Rabbids' series. They are joined by fellow co-founders Cristina Nava, Gian Marco Zanna, and Luca Breda, who bring extensive experience from their work on major franchises like 'Just Dance', 'Ghost Recon', and 'Star Wars' during their time at Ubisoft. This core team has a history of working together for over 15 years, fostering a strong, collaborative environment.
The studio's formation was backed by an initial funding round led by prominent video game publisher KRAFTON, Inc., with additional participation from 1Up Ventures, a fund started by Xbox co-creator Ed Fries. The business operates in the PC and console gaming market, focusing on creating entirely original intellectual properties (IPs). The company’s stated mission is to develop deeply heartfelt and original games that push boundaries in both storytelling and game design. Their business model centers on the development and sale of these new titles.
Day 4 Night Studios' first project is a completely new and original game. While specific details about the game remain under wraps, it has been described by investors as a highly engaging and captivating story with a creative and original vision. The founders aim for their work to reflect qualities they cherish as players: joy, adventure, poetry, action, and wonder, intending to create transformative worlds and stories. The studio's establishment represents a move by its founders to return to what they describe as the "innovative spirit" and "unbridled creativity" of video game development.
