The Mayor of Moscow, Sergey Sobyanin, wrote on his Telegram channel that this will be the first cluster of its kind in Russia. It is expected that both leading Russian gaming and animation companies and young studios will become residents.
According to Sobyanin, residents of the Moscow cluster will have access to innovative equipment for their projects. There will also be an educational platform and a space for conferences. In addition, developer residents will receive assistance in promoting their games abroad, as they will be invited to international events where they can find partners.
"I am confident that the creation of the cluster will help develop video game tourism. Soon, there will be games whose settings, stories, and characters are linked to Moscow, its history, culture, and geography," concluded Sobyanin.
