FuturLab

FuturLab at a Glance

FuturLab is a remote-first studio based in Brighton, United Kingdom that has been active since 2010. The company lists sixteen games on PlayPile, with twelve credits as both a publisher and a developer. Their catalog spans multiple genres, though Indie and Puzzle titles make up the largest share with seven releases each. They also have five simulator games, three shooters, three arcade games, two adventure titles, and single entries in platformer, strategy, racing, and music categories. The studio shows a strong preference for PC as a primary platform with seven games released there. PlayStation Vita holds the second spot with six ports, followed by four releases on PlayStation 4 and four on Xbox Series X|S. Their reach extends to older hardware like the PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 3, while also supporting modern systems including the Nintendo Switch and iOS devices. Quality trends for FuturLab are generally positive across their rated titles. Out of nine games with scores on IGDB, six received great ratings above 80 points, and three earned good scores between 60 and 79. No titles fell into the mixed or poor categories. Their highest-rated work includes Velocity from 2012 at 85/100 and Velocity 2X in 2014 at 84.4/100. More recent hits include Surge Deluxe (2014) at 86.7/100 and PowerWash Simulator VR (2023) which reached 90/100. The original PowerWash Simulator from July 2022 scored 76.8, while its sequel released in October 2025 holds an 84/100 rating. Output volume changed noticeably between decades. The studio released ten games during the 2010s but only five titles in the 2020s so far. This lower count in recent years contrasts with their early success in fast-paced action games like the Velocity series. Later releases shifted toward simulation and licensed content, such as Peaky Blinders: Mastermind which scored 67.5/100 in August 2020. The studio continues to work on new projects including PowerWash Simulator 2 with an Adventure Time Pack scheduled for April 2026. While their bio claims a focus on frictionless fun, the data shows a clear pivot from arcade action to simulation titles over time.
