Reliance Games join hands with Atari to expand their Free-to-Play Business

 

Citytopia® will be the first game to be published under the Reliance Games and Atari® collaboration

Reliance Games entered into a strategic partnership with Atari® – one of the world's most iconic consumer brands and interactive entertainment producers in August 2022. Reliance Games has acquired the rights to publish Citytopia® – an exciting city builder and management game. The collaboration combines Reliance Games' expertise in game development, data analysis, and Live Operations with Atari’s popular free-to-play portfolio and its vast experience in offering addictive gameplay.

Citytopia has beautiful 3D graphics and an innovative needs-based objective system. Citizens need goods and work, factories want to create goods and employ workers, and stores are looking for goods and people to supply. Citytopia gives players the freedom to create, build, and manage their own thriving metropolis.

With over 500 million downloads and serving up over 5 billion game sessions per year, Reliance Games has proven expertise and a successful track record working with major brands and entertainment IPs. This partnership builds on Reliance’s expansion to provide investment, consultancy, and Live Ops support for development studios around the world.

Amit Khanduja, the CEO of Reliance Entertainment Digital said "Reliance Games has been integral to the development of the free-to-play space in mobile gaming. We are excited to continue exploring and evolving that space now leveraging Atari's immensely engaging content. It’s hard to imagine a more appropriate partner to help us play on to our strengths and bridge the gap between players and the entertainment they crave."

As part of the agreement, Reliance and Atari have agreed to explore collaborating on additional mobile game titles from Atari’s portfolio.

Wade Rosen, the CEO of Atari said "Reliance Games is a leader in the free-to-play space and we are excited to be working with them on mobile games. This partnership ensures that our portfolio of mobile games will continue to provide value to players and to our shareholders."
