Noodle Cat Games has raised $12 Million in funding to bring fresh ideas to the action role-playing game genre.
Salt Lake City, Utah-based Noodle Cat Games is an indie game development studio founded by industry veterans. London-based Hiro Capital led the round with participation from Makers Fund, Krafton, and Sony Innovation Fund.
The core team at Noodle Cat Games comes from studios such as Epic Games, Electronic Arts, and BioWare. These seasoned professionals have held leadership roles in the development of legendary titles like Fortnite, Star Wars: The Old Republic, and Infinity Blade. Noodle Cat Games is now poised to embark on the development of its first original intellectual property — an innovative multiplayer action RPG.
David Hunt, CEO of Noodle Cat Games, said in a statement, “The game industry is ripe for a revolution in how we work – a revolution that maximizes individual creative impact, leading to better games and greater team satisfaction.”
He added, “Over the last year, Noodle Cat has iterated from hypothesis to an effective development structure that has resulted in a unique gameplay experience. We’re excited at the opportunity this fundraising round gives us to fully execute on building awesome games in pursuit of a better future for the industry. I’m deeply grateful to the world-class investors that are supporting our vision.”
