Aurora Labs raises $75M Series B to scale text-to-motion AI for game studios

Gaming · 4 min read

Aurora Labs announced a $75 million Series B led by BluePeak Capital on June 25, 2026, to accelerate deployment of its text-to-motion engine for game and cinematic pipelines. The company claims its models can convert short narrative prompts into keyframe-compatible motion clips, cutting weeks of animator time down to hours.

The new capital will fund enterprise integrations, larger pre-trained motion datasets, and a dedicated SDK that plugs into popular DCC tools and game engines. Aurora also disclosed plans to open a hosted inferencing service optimized for high-fidelity, low-latency animation generation for mid-sized studios.

Founders emphasized ethical and creative controls: motion watermarking, editable control rigs, and an “intent alignment” tool so leads can steer generated results. For studios struggling with tight schedules and remote teams, Aurora positions its system as a way to scale iteration without replacing human animators.
