Mundfish unveils two new games: The Cube and Ill

The release date isn’t set yet for the game, which was revealed during Summer Game Fest and will debut on the PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

The Cube is a multiplayer RPG shooter, set on a giant floating cube with rotating rows and edges. Among them is hidden an unknown equation that can change the laws of reality. Will you survive the next turn? It is being built in Unreal Engine 5.

The game was inspired by Atomic Heart, Destiny 1&2, Tom Clancy’s The Division 1&2, Warframe and Monster Hunter.

The title has a new deep story with an impactful narrative set in the Atomic Universe. Set in a uniquely designed world featuring a massive, levitating Cube with constantly rotating rows and edges that create unexpected scenarios and combinations of the environment as well as new combat challenges.

The world stands on the brink of a new threat. A mysterious giant levitating structure known as The Cube has become the epicenter of increasingly dangerous phenomena, and in order to save humanity, players must plunge deep into its secrets—and survive.

“At Mundfish, we were the first in the industry to implement a technology that allows thousands ofobjects to move and rotate simultaneously across massive stretches of terrain — online and in real time.No other game has ever done this before,” said Robert Bagratuni, CEO of Cyprus-based Mundfish, in a statement. “This became possible thanks to our innovative proprietary split-rendering system, which redefines how motion is handled in interactive environments. The technology delivers maximum performance even under extreme load. In The Cube, physics, ballistics, and gravity feel completely natural — but under the hood, it’s powered by rocket science. The system enables seamless transitions, precise object tracking, and synchronized multiplayer in a living, ever-evolving world. It’s a true technological breakthrough.”
