“Our team’s dream is to make the world jam together. In music, a jam is a suspended moment — a shared energy between friends, strangers, and other passionate souls who just happen to be there. You might not know each other, but for a few magical, spontaneous moments, you vibe together. It’s that same spark you sometimes feel in a multiplayer game. Our dream is to bring all these joyful moments together into one single, shared experience.”
What is MAJJAM?
MAJJAM is a vibrant co-op adventure inspired by the communal creativity of a live jam session, where players can build their own expressive arsenal of melodies, rhythms, and harmonies to explore and rescue a vibrant and ever-evolving world. With music at its core, MAJJAM offers a deeply immersive social experience that celebrates the connective power of both video games and music.
MAJJAM throws you into a vibrant world where music is life itself. Seriously, rhythm and melodies are how you interact with everything. This musical energy is what keeps the world together and pushes back against Kodé, a creeping, silent fog of corruption that threatens to swallow everything.
You’ll battle this encroaching darkness by Jamming. This isn’t about hitting precise notes in a rhythm game; it’s about combining your character’s unique abilities and instruments with your pals to defeat enemies, solve puzzles, and literally reshape the world around you. Opus Major’s mission is to get everyone jamming, regardless of their musical chops. Jamming serves a ton of purposes: fighting Kodé, exploring, influencing the environment, and uncovering secrets.
What can we expect from MAJJAM characters?
Each character in MAJJAM rocks a special Jam ability. But that’s just the start. You’ll also unlock, collect, and store a whole system of musical abilities as you play. Every single ability has its own unique musical power, deepening your skillset and your connection to the world.
