MTG Takes the Helm at Snowprint Studios
Modern Times Group (MTG) just scored a game-changing power-up, acquiring a majority stake in Snowprint Studios. This move is set to amplify Snowprint’s journey in crafting top-notch experiences for the turn-based strategy gaming community.
All About Snowprint Studios
For those not dialed into the Snowprint universe yet, this studio is the mastermind behind killer titles like Legend of Solgard, Rivengard, and the much-hyped Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus. The latter even clinched the Game of the Year award from Pocket Gamer in 2022. It’s not just another mobile game; it’s solidifying its rep as a leading turn-based tactics game, especially within the Warhammer 40,000 ecosystem.
MTG’s Playbook: Support and Synergy
MTG is no noob in the gaming world. With this partnership, they’re not just buying into a game studio; they’re investing in a shared vision. MTG Group President and CEO Maria Redin emphasizes that Snowprint will gain access to valuable tools and know-how within the MTG fold. They’re particularly keen on the game’s strong affinity with their other mid-core titles, opening avenues for killer cross-promotion strategies.
Snowprint Studios’ Take
Snowprint’s CEO and co-founder Alexander Ekvall is all in, stating that MTG’s culture and management philosophy is a mirror match with their own. The studio, which started as a startup and leveled up into a leading independent mobile studio, sees MTG as the ultimate ally for its next campaign. They’re now equipped with a broader toolkit, promising even speedier growth for their game portfolio.
What Gamers Can Expect
Hold onto your controllers, because this merger is setting the stage for some epic new updates, platform expansions, and community growth. Snowprint Studios is now better armed to continue its mission: to deliver genre-defining experiences that turn-based strategy gamers will be talking about in Discord chats for years to come.
