Beamable Partners with Upheaval Games to Shape the AI-Driven Future of Game Development

At Beamable, we’ve always envisioned game development as a thrilling synergy of boundless creativity and robust infrastructure. Today, we’re excited to announce our partnership with Upheaval Games, pioneers behind Dreamer, a revolutionary AI-powered platform that’s reshaping the very fabric of game creation.

Celebrated by Forbes as the herald of the “agentic era” in AI-driven game development, Upheaval’s Dreamer Portal supercharges human imagination with intelligent, agent-driven tools that swiftly conceptualize, refine, and deploy breathtaking content. At the heart of this innovation are Digital Beings – agents endowed with their own memories, desires, and personalities, who evolve and grow alongside players. Through engaging interactions, these agents continually learn, adapting their behaviors and narratives dynamically, making each gaming experience uniquely personal and alive.

So where does Beamable come in?

We’re powering the backend of that same revolution.

As Upheaval reimagines how developers build the frontend of games using generative AI, Beamable provides the live game infrastructure needed to bring those creations to life at scale. Think of it as the perfect fusion of brains and brawn – AI tools that dream big, and a backend that can deliver those dreams to millions of players in real time.

Together, we’re exploring what it means for AI-generated game content to actually work in the context of live service games. That means everything from managing dynamic player data and in-game economies to syncing AI-authored content across game sessions, regions, and updates. We’re building new workflows where AI-created assets and behaviors can be deployed, tested, and iterated on with zero friction – no DevOps required.

Why This Matters

Game development is entering a new era where iteration speed, personalization, and live interactivity are paramount. Upheaval is redefining how games are created. Beamable is redefining how they’re run. And together, we’re unlocking new possibilities that couldn’t exist even five years ago.

“The real promise of AI in games isn’t just about content creation – it’s about connection. When generative tools like Dreamer meet backend systems like Beamable, we unlock the ability to build living, responsive game worlds that adapt to every player in real time,” said Jon Radoff, CEO of Beamable. “This partnership with Upheaval puts us at the forefront of that evolution.”

“Our mission with Dreamer is to remove friction from the creative process and empower developers to focus on storytelling, world-building, and player experience,” said Jeff Goodsill, President of Upheaval Games. “Beamable’s infrastructure complements that mission perfectly – making it possible to take what creators build in Dreamer and deliver it directly into the hands of players with scale, speed, and stability.”

Whether you’re an indie dev, a growing studio, or a AAA team rethinking your content pipeline, the question is no longer if AI will change game development – it’s how fast you can adapt.

With Beamable and Upheaval, we’re making that transition faster, smarter, and more creator-friendly than ever before.

Stay tuned. The future is being built in real time – and you’re invited.
