Ex-Destiny, Halo devs bag $3.5 million seed round for VR startup Polyarc

A new Seattle VR startup from three people who helped make the hit online shooter Destiny has received a $3.5 million seed round of investment from several overseas backers.

Polyarc will focus primarily on virtual reality gaming content, but it hasn’t announced what its first game is yet. What we do know is that in March the fledgling studio received an Epic Games Unreal Developer grant. The funds were awarded for a game known only as “Moss.” Chinese investment firm UCCVR lead the round, with follow-on investments from Colopl‘s VR Fund and Vulcan Capital.
