MY.GAMES Will Relaunch Warface

MY.GAMES, a leading international game developer and publisher, has announced that Warface will be relaunched. The new version will contain its own roadmap, direction, updates, and unique regional content, including new maps, weapon series, events and more.

Towards the end of 2022, MY.GAMES declared a business restructuring process following its decision to exit from the Russian market. As per this strategy, MY.GAMES will relaunch the console and PC versions of the game as a separate product with a different name. Meanwhile, the PC version of the game for Russian players will retain the name Warface, and its further development and publishing will be carried out by another company called Astrum Entertainment. 

In line with its global expansion strategy, MY.GAMES has placed its emphasis solely on international business development and enhancing the infrastructure for its widely distributed team. The company prioritizes global development in key markets like the United States, Europe, and Asia, as well as emerging markets such as MENA, LATAM, Indonesia, and India. MY.GAMES will continue to develop mobile, PC, and console games, and publish them in these regions.

"Today, with over 120 million registered users worldwide and a lifetime revenue of more than $700 million, Warface has maintained a longstanding and dedicated fanbase since its initial launch eleven years ago," said Vladimir Nikolsky, CEO of MY.GAMES. "We want to ensure the new MY.GAMES title — which will start out with the existing Warface version and user profiles — will evolve in a way that enhances the experiences of our community, with our teams continuing to support, iterate, and innovate on a game with a remarkable legacy. We're excited to develop our renewed title from this amazing beginning point, and we're looking forward to providing our players with a lot of interesting content this year."

The restructuring also involved spinning off the part of the business generating revenue in Russia into a new independent company. Consequently, MY.GAMES has ceased all operations in Russia.
