About Us

Ego is building an Infinite Game - a persistent virtual 3D world where lifelike AI agents are able to interact with players and each other to build their own relationships, communities, and games within the game. Our embodied AI agents can perceive the world in 3D, reason like a human, and write scripting code directly into the game engine.

If you’re passionate about building AI agents in 3D worlds, thrive on fast-paced innovation, and enjoy collaborating in a tight-knit team of game developers, designers, and technical artists, we’d love to hear from you!
