INTRODUCTION:
Life in virtual worlds is the present and future of humanity and gaming industry. It has continually become one of the industries that have revolutionized the business world. Who thought that one could combine leisure with technology and finance and build an initiative that would contribute to the economy? Cassagi is one brand that is a part of this revolution in the gaming industry.
ABOUT CASSAGI:
Cassagi is a game outsourcing studio based in Košice, Slovakia. The word “Cassa” refers to “Villa Cassa”, the first written mention of the city Košice dated in 1230. Although Cassagi was initially named Cassa Game Industry, to be brief, the company later decided to adopt Cassagi as a branding/trading name.
The company specializes in comprehensive project development, AAA art production and game development for PC and mobile platforms. It’s a passionate, detail-oriented team of game developers, designers and artists.
Cassagi’s collective goal is to support the local scene and provide young people with better and more accessible opportunities in the game development industry. A great talent rests in Slovakia, and Cassagi believes that it can help bring it out to the world by becoming the best in the industry.
Our vision is to create long-term professional partnerships with the best worldwide studios and help them shape the future of realistic digital production for games and movies.

LEVELING UP THE GAME:
Cassagi has been on the market for 5 years, since 2017. In its beginnings, the team have been focusing on providing services in art production for indie projects. Mostly creating game assets with a realistic or semi-realistic style design. The first large projects were Hell let Loose and Theatre VR, where the team defined quality standards and values. After the years, situations changed, and Cassagi preferred the selection of demanding projects in terms of graphic, design or technical aspects. The company started as a three-member team and grew to more than 20 people, and still hiring.
Recently, Cassagi has been working on projects for which it has provided all areas of development from game design, world-building, environment, hard-surface and character art to programming game architecture or game mechanics for Mobile and PC platforms.
We had the opportunity to join and work on one of the most exciting franchises in the world: Star Wars Legion. We accepted the challenge to digitise models of characters and machines from the Star Wars universe in incredible detail. Our responsibility was to digitise these physical assets for the advertisement.
