Popularium, a gaming studio founded by industry veterans including Richard Garfield, Jon Bankard, and Arka Ray, has successfully closed its seed funding round, securing $2 million in investments.

Led by Richard Garfield, the creator of Magic: The Gathering, along with Jon Bankard, a former developer for Hearthstone and World of Warcraft, and Arka Ray, previously a manager at Xbox Live, Popularium boasts a team with extensive experience in the gaming industry. The studio's debut title, Chaos Agents, is currently in development an autobattler royale.

Richard Garfield stated "Getting everything right in a completely new type of game is challenging, and the experience of Popularium, and the support of early investors and members of our community have been vital - there is no amount of planning that can replace the exciting journey that trial and iteration provides. This support will allow us to launch a public Alpha as soon as this summer and bring Chaos Agent to thousands more fans."
