STOCKHOLM: London-based mobile game developer Tripledot Studios has agreed to buy marketing platform AppLovin 's mobile games studio portfolio for about $800 million in cash and stock, it said on Thursday. The deal will help Tripledot expand its footprint in markets including the United States and Asia, and add gaming titles such as Cash Tornado , Wordscapes and Wordle to its current portfolio of 25 live games, including Woodoku, Nut Sort and Triple Tile. AppLovin was among the companies submitting a bid for short video app TikTok's assets outside China, ahead of the deadline of April 5 that U.S. President Donald Trump set for a non-Chinese buyer. "Seven years ago, we began acquiring gaming studios to help train our earliest machine learning models," AppLovin CEO Adam Foroughi said in a statement. "However, we have never been a game developer at heart." The deal will add 10 gaming studios to Tripledot's portfolio and increase its presence into 17 more cities across North America, Europe and Asia, the companies said.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tripledot Studios, one of the world's fastest-growing mobile game developers, is today announcing the acquisition of AppLovin's mobile games studio portfolio for approximately $800 million. The half cash, half equity deal will see AppLovin become a minority shareholder in Tripledot Studios while allowing Tripledot to expand its footprint in key strategic markets, including the US and Asia. As a result of this deal and subject to its closing, Tripledot Studios will operate a total of 12 studios with more than 2,500 team members across 23 cities globally. Tripledot will have over 25 million daily active users and annual gross revenues of nearly $2 billion, making it one of the top five independent mobile game studios globally by revenue. Our mission is to become the world's most successful mobile game studio. Acquiring AppLovin's games portfolio is a big step towards achieving that goal - taking us from being a high-performing challenger to a true global leader. Share Founded in London in 2017 by gaming industry veterans Lior Shiff, Akin Babayigit and Eyal Chameides, Tripledot Studios is one of the world's largest casual games developers.

'Our mission is to become the world's most successful mobile game studio.

Partnering with AppLovin's mobile games studio portfolio makes Tripledot the largest European mobile gaming company with expertise in both in-app purchase and in-app advertising business models. This enables Tripledot to create games for a much larger global audience and leverage best-in-class practices across marketing, product, AI and monetisation Access to a Global Talent Pool: Tripledot's global footprint and expanded capabilities create an opportunity to leverage highly specialised experts across product, tech, marketing and art in a wider range of global geographies and creating better player experiences for tens of millions of people every day Instant Scale: Pending regulatory approval and closing of the deal, this acquisition will make Tripledot Studios one of the largest mobile developers and publishers globally and will supercharge its already comprehensive data science and AI capabilities delivering a better experience for our players Adam Foroughi, Co-founder and CEO of AppLovin, said: 'Seven years ago, we began acquiring gaming studios to help train our earliest machine learning models. However, we've never been a game developer at heart. We have immense respect for the creativity it takes to build games, including from teams in our studios. Today, we're announcing we've finalized a deal to sell all of our Apps business to Tripledot Studios. I have watched Lior build his company from the ground up and I have immense respect for his and the Tripledot team's ability to run a games company. Lior and his team are some of the best operators in the business and give me incredible confidence they are the right partner to help these studios thrive going forward.'
