Launched in 2020, Bang Bang Games is a privately held company. By the time it started out, its staff was limited to less than 20 employees. Based on its official information on the LinkedIn page, however, even with that small team, the company managed to set headquarters simultaneously in London, Milan, and Taipei.
The company joins the roster of YGS Masters and specifically signs up for Yggdrasil’s signature GATI Technology. This is a set of tools that allows a studio to easily and quickly create and distribute its content. Yggdrasil Gaming powered its Master’s program a few years ago but added GATI to the list of services fairly recently.
For Bang Bang Games, having a partner as strong as Yggdrasil Gaming covering its back is definitely a good thing. Making one’s way up through an industry as competitive as slot development is not easy for a newbie, and more and more startups choose an older brother to lean on.
Frank McPolin, Managing Director of Bang Bang Games, commented on the deal: “Yggdrasil is at the forefront of innovation, and we are very excited to enter into this partnership which will allow us to accelerate our global portfolio reach using Yggdrasil’s standardized GATI technology as a key enabler. We have been big fans of Yggdrasil for many years, and knowing that prominent, high caliber studios are already part of the YG Masters program, puts us in great company. We are confident we can bring something different to the Yggdrasil distribution network and can’t wait to start showing the world what we’re made of!”
In all fairness, Bang Bang Games earned its right to be among Yggdrasil’s partners due to its unique vision and a clear strategy to innovate the industry. When talking about their new partners, folks at Yggdrasil say the following: “We are thrilled to welcome Bang Bang Games to the YG Masters family. We have been keeping an eye on Bang Bang for some time now and have been impressed with the team and the game mechanics they are developing. It’s going to be very exciting to see the Bang Bang team carve their place in the industry using our unique GATI technology as a go-to-market, and business strategy enabler.”
