  • The studio is expanding its physical footprint beyond the United Kingdom by establishing new offices in Italy and Japan to facilitate better collaboration with local stakeholders.
  • Vampire Survivors has reached a global player base of over 27 million, providing the resources to fund a diverse portfolio of new genre experiments, including card games.
