addition to the international gaming community,
Knibble’s association with the FXLabs
brand will help us reach a much wider audience
in India. With a portfolio of 10,000 plus
games over multiple platforms, we are an attractive
game destination for game enthusiasts worldwide”.
With
this acquisition, FXLabs is making a strong
entry into the world of online casual games
and it has already built in-house the expertise
to design and develop state-of-the-art casual
games.
The
company recently launched its revamped web
site www.fxlabs.com, which now integrates
the free game play of Knibble with a new
digital download platform for the PC games
that FXLabs is developing.
FXLabs
said that this acquisition makes it a leading
online gaming company globally. It also
facilitates the company’s expansion
to reach international online game players,
who are also its target audience for games
like Archies and Dhoom-2 that
the company is currently working on.
FXLabs
has a state-of-the-art game development
studio in Hyderabad. With this acquisition,
FXLabs will expand its geographic presence
to have an online game development centre
in Chennai as well as a business development
office in San Francisco.
Knibble
games will be available and can be played
from the iPhone, Nintendo Wii console and
other traditional and non-traditional gaming
platforms. Its web crawling technology finds
casual games from the Internet and makes
the games available for playing on the portal.
