Spec Ops: The Line developer Yager has been given funding by Chinese multinational Tencent.
The money will likely be used for the continued improvement of Yager’s free to play shooter The Cycle, at present in Season 2 and out there on the Epic Games Store, in addition to its publishing ambitions.
Tencent invests in and owns a rising portfolio of games builders and publishers together with Riot Games, Epic Games, Blizzard, Supercell, Platinum and Ubisoft.
“Tencent is not only the world’s leading games company but also a prolific investor with a stellar track record: We’re humbled to join the line-up of Tencent partners which reads like a games industry Who’s Who”, mentioned Timo Ullmann, CEO of Yager.
We performed The Cycle not too long ago and located it to be a fresh take on the battle royale subgenre.
