Nodwin Gaming has announced the acquisition of Istanbul-based esports and gaming firm Ninja Global FZCO. This strategic maneuver marks a significant step for Nodwin Gaming, opening up new avenues for growth and expansion in Turkey and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
Ninja Global FZCO, known for its expertise in organizing tournaments, managing broadcasts, and fostering esports communities, will now become part of the Nodwin Gaming family. This acquisition is poised to enhance Nodwin’s capabilities, enabling the company to offer tailored solutions to publishers and brands operating in the dynamic esports market of Turkey and MENA.
The move comes on the heels of Nodwin’s recent acquisition of Publishme, a game marketing agency focusing on West Asia and Turkey. With Ninja Global FZCO now under its umbrella, Nodwin Gaming is strategically positioning itself to capitalize on the rapidly growing mobile games market in Central Asia.
As a subsidiary of Nazara Technologies, Nodwin Gaming plays a crucial role as the largest revenue driver within the parent company. Despite reporting a negative earnings before tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) in the last quarter, Nodwin remains focused on aggressive growth, prioritizing its long-term potential in the esports industry.
This acquisition follows Nodwin Gaming’s full takeover of Comic Con India, further diversifying its portfolio and strengthening its foothold in the events space. Nazara Technologies, the parent company of Nodwin Gaming, reported robust financial performance for the December quarter, with a significant contribution from its esports division.
With a clear commitment to expansion and innovation, Nodwin Gaming is poised to shape the future of esports on a global scale. The acquisition of Ninja Global FZCO represents a strategic investment in the company’s vision of becoming a dominant force in the ever-evolving esports ecosystem.
