The team at Wooga today announced their acquisition by leading mobile games company Playtika. Playtika is a great home for Wooga, with rapid growth, a great team and a complementary set of games. Both companies emphasise combining art with science to create great mobile games.

Read Rob's story behind our investment in Wooga, and why he thinks Jens is an exceptional, and in many ways unique, startup CEO. 

“This is an amazing day for Wooga. Becoming part of Playtika is opening the next chapter in the history of our company”, said Jens Begemann. “It is a very natural fit for both parties: We have the expertise in creating and launching story-driven casual games, Playtika has the technologies to help us scale and reach new audiences to continue our growth.”

This is also great news for the Berlin ecosystem. We will continue to spend a lot of time in Berlin looking for our next investments, as well as spending time with our other investments here: Contentful, Dalia Research, Frontier Car Group and Infarm.

Many congratulations to Jens and the whole team at Wooga.
