In a press release announcing the studio's launch, Strain said, “We felt this was the right time to create something new—a studio built from the ground up to embrace evolving needs and perspectives for both players and developers. […] Possibility Space [is] a modern kind of game studio, where we are creating a joyful game that’s been my dream for many years.” [5]
The studio attempted to hire and mentor people from "underserved and overlooked communities and backgrounds". [6]
