FunPlus, the leading mobile game developer and publisher behind hit free-to-play titles of State of Survival, King of Avalon, and Guns of Glory has announced plans for growth and talent acquisition at its publishing office in Barcelona, Spain. These growth ambitions will further reinforce the company’s presence in Europe, in addition to its Global Headquarters in Switzerland.
The location played a key role for the growth of FunPlus
Based in the centre of the city, the FunPlus Barcelona office had opened in late 2019. It has been gradually growing its team and scope over the past two years. It will continue to tap into the talented pool of technology and gaming professionals located in the Barcelona region to double the current team of 15, by the end of 2021. This growth will continue into 2022, as FunPlus seeks to build out its teams with a focus on growth marketing, community management, and creative services.
Barcelona is a world-renowned center of excellence for talent in the mobile and video game space, and we are excited to position FunPlus at the heart of the action. As the team grows here we will have even more opportunities to expand the reach and impact of our games and further engage our communities.
