Recorded that the official site and the storefront listing spell the publishing subsidiary's legal name differently
11YHKT, written 艺画开天 in simplified Chinese, is the Chinese studio developing Bringer. Its legal entity is 武汉艺画开天文化传播有限公司, founded in 2015 and based in Wuhan, China. The studio built its reputation in Chinese animation production, and Bringer is its first game.22The studio styles itself with the bare abbreviation YHKT in its own corporate materials, and this wiki follows that. A longer English styling, YHKT ENTERTAINMENT, appears in the studio's announcement copy as redistributed to the international press, but no first party page was found using the longer form, so it is recorded here as a variant rather than adopted as the name.44Corporate Structure66Three named entities appear in the record for Bringer, and they do different jobs. Keeping them apart matters, because two of them are subsidiaries of the first and it would be easy to read the arrangement as a third party deal when it is not.88EntityLegal nameRole艺画开天 (YHKT)武汉艺画开天文化传播有限公司Parent studio, founded 2015, credited as developer墨界游戏武汉墨界科技有限公司Development subsidiary, founded 2020, with a Guangzhou development team from 2021. Carries out the actual development work澄境星壹武汉澄境星壹科技有限公司Publishing subsidiary. Publisher of the game in Mainland China10-Because 澄境星壹 is a YHKT subsidiary, the Mainland Chinese release is a self publishing arrangement rather than an outside publishing deal. Chinese coverage from October 2025 states the split directly, describing the game as developed by 艺画开天 and published by its own 澄境星壹, and the official Mainland site's footer confirms it in its own words: 著作权人 (copyright holder) 武汉艺画开天文化传播有限公司, 发行公司 (publishing company) 武汉澄境星壹科技有限公司, under the ICP filing 鄂ICP备2023012261号-5. For the overseas release, no publisher has been announced by anyone as of 21 September 2026. See Release and Platforms.10+Because 澄境星壹 is a YHKT subsidiary, the Mainland Chinese release is a self publishing arrangement rather than an outside publishing deal. Chinese coverage from October 2025 states the split directly, describing the game as developed by 艺画开天 and published by its own 澄境星壹, and the official Mainland site's footer confirms it in its own words: 著作权人 (copyright holder) 武汉艺画开天文化传播有限公司, 发行公司 (publishing company) 武汉澄境星壹科技有限公司, under the ICP filing 鄂ICP备2023012261号-5. The mobile storefront listing, by contrast, gives the supplier as 武汉澄境科技有限公司 and the brand as 澄境星壹, so two spellings of the legal name are in official use and this wiki records both rather than picking one. For the overseas release, no publisher has been announced by anyone as of 21 September 2026. See Release and Platforms.1111Ownership1313Chinese reporting from October 2025, citing a corporate filing dated 30 May 2025, states that Tencent and 阅文 together hold 61.82 percent of the studio. This is a shareholding. It is not a development credit and it is not a publishing credit, and it should never be written as either. No entity other than 艺画开天 and its own subsidiaries has been named in connection with making or publishing Bringer.1515Background and Other Projects1717YHKT is an animation studio by origin, and the properties it is known for are animated series rather than games. Two are named in the record: 《灵笼》 (simplified Chinese), which circulates internationally under the English rendering Ling Cage, and 《三体》 (simplified Chinese), for which no studio published English title appears in the material used to build this wiki, so none is invented here. Both were produced before the studio entered the games industry. No production years for either series are asserted on this page, because none was attested in the material checked on 13 September 2026.1919Those series are named here only to establish the studio's track record and scale. Nothing from them is carried into this wiki: no character, no setting, no plot and no system from either series belongs to Bringer, and the studio has not publicly drawn any thematic line between them and the game. What does matter to a reader is the consequence. Bringer is the studio's first game, so it arrives with an experienced animation production behind it and no prior shipped game of its own.2121As of 21 September 2026 the studio has announced no game other than Bringer. See Development for how the game itself is being built.
