Pocket Games Opens Beta of Viximo, Mobile Games Platform

‘Beta Open’ Announced at Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2016

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 21, 2015 / Pocket Games (OTC: PKGM), a new force in mobile gaming, announced at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco that they have launched a Closed Beta Program for Game Developers and AppStores worldwide.

Viximo connects game developers to sales channels in difficult to reach markets through its write once, deploy everywhere platform. Once onboarded to the Viximo platform, mobile games can be deployed across several stores worldwide, providing vastly expanded user reach to game developers in the West. The Viximo toolset also enables developers to increase user engagement and monetization as well as offering localization options. These markets account for over 70% of global app-store market spend annually.

“At GDC we were overwhelmed by the response from the development community as well as from AppStores around the world,” said David Lovatt, Chief Executive Officer at Pocket Games. “Straight after we closed the acquisition in February 2016, we engaged our development resources and testing center to further develop the Viximo Platform and we are now at a stage where we can offer Beta to interested parties.”

Viximo was founded in 2008 in Boston, Massachusetts and received venture capital funding from Northbridge Venture Partners and Sigma Partners. The company generates revenues by taking a percentage of in-app purchases of the titles it distributes as well as through in-game advertising and an increased revenue share model with ‘Premium Partners’ by offering value-ad services such as increased discovery and deep analytics.

“Game developers are responding with amazing speed. However, there is still a massive distribution need, especially from developers seeking access to the lucrative Japanese, India, China, Russia and South American Markets. The Viximo platform can become the leading distribution partner, providing accelerated global reach to today’s game developers” said David Lovatt.

Interested Developers and AppStores are encouraged to register at www.viximo.com/beta.
