Digital Reality Software Kft. (formerly Amnesty Design) was a Hungarian video game developer based in Budapest, Hungary. It was founded in 1991 as Amnesty Design, and started to work on their upcoming title, Reunion, which would be released in 1994 by Grandslam Video, for Amiga and MS-DOS. In 1997, leading up to the release of Imperium Galactica, the company changed its name to Digital Reality. In the following decade, games like Haegemonia: Legions of Iron, Platoon, SkyDrift and Desert Rats vs. Afrika Korps were produced, all to positive reception.
In 2006, Digital Reality opened a subsidiary studio, Whiz Software, in cooperation with CDV Software,{{Cite web | url=http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/cdv-teams-up-with-digital-reality-to-form-new-studio | title=CDV teams up with Digital Reality to form new studio}}{{Cite web |date=2006-03-10 |title=German video game maker sets up JV with Digital Reality - Budapest Business Journal |url=https://bbj.hu/business/industry/retail/german-video-game-maker-sets-up-jv-with-digital-reality35288/ |access-date=2025-03-28 |website=bbj.hu |language=en-US}} and in 2011, they spun off a digital distribution subsidiary, Digital Reality Publishing.
