Parent company of Rockstar Games, Take-Two Interactive is doing very well financially. This good health encourages the company to invest, as it is doing today with the mobile studio called Playdots.
Developer of Dots, Two Dots and Dots & Co, Playdot is coming, according to information provided by Gamastura, to be acquired $ 192 million by Take-Two Interactive with the aim of “diversifying and strengthening its mobile offering”. On this total, we find a direct payment of 90 million of dollars, while the remaining 102 million are paid through issued shares. Nir Efrat, current CEO of Playdots, will retain his position and therefore continue to lead operations. Michael Worosz, Vice-President and Head of Strategy and Independent Publishing of Take-Two, said on this occasion:
Two Dots continues to grow its audience and under the leadership of Nir. The addition of geocaches, leaderboards, and live ops technology improves the game and drives meaningful, long-term consumer engagement. We are very happy to welcome Nir and the entire Playdots team to the Take-Two family, and we are excited about the potential of their development pipeline and their long-term positive contributions to our business.
