Act 3 Games was founded by God of War 3 Art Director Ken Feldman in 2014. The Fidelio Incident was created and advised by many ex-members of the God of War franchise.
Talking about The Fidelio Incident, Ken Feldman said:
“For The Fidelio Incident, inspirations include Dear Esther, Gone Home, and Firewatch as well as character dramas like Homeland, Lost, and The Americans. The game was also inspired by Beethoven’s only opera, Fidelio. We used the opera’s premise as inspiration for the backstory, and then re-imagined it for a modern setting.”

Ken continued:
“We’ve been working on The Fidelio Incident for 3 years, and we wanted to release it out of nowhere to capture the emotional feeling when you’ve just seen a Netflix show or played something you immediately have to talk about. The Fidelio Incident is a provocative thriller that will hook you from the start.”
