Release
Fates Forever was officially released on iPad worldwide on July 3, 2014 as the first game developed and published by start-up game studio Hammer & Chisel[3] a company founded by former OpenFeint CEO Jason Citron,[3] with the intent to build "great, complex games that don't compromise simply because they're for mobile device".[4]
The game's development staff would later go on to develop Discord, an online VoIP platform designed primarily for gaming.[5]
