The company is going to look for developers and publishers in the Western market.
For its part, it promises to provide access to the Chinese market. So, the company has developed an SDK with which a developer can “in one click” manage an account in 60 Android stores.
However, the Chinese Youzu calls its main trump card a fund of $ 330 million. This is the amount the Chinese company is ready to spend on cooperation with Western game studios. “We will become a bridge between the Asian market and Western games,” comments Mark Chen, vice president of the company’s publishing department in China.
Youzu is a publisher and developer of mobile and PC games with a staff of 1,500 people. He has 20 games in his portfolio, whose total audience is 350 million, according to the company itself. One of the most popular projects of Youzu is the MMORPG League of Angels for PC. He earns up to $25 million monthly. The latest release of Youzu for mobile devices is the game Youth of Three Kingdoms. According to the resource Pocketgamer.biz , the project has been in the top 10 highest-grossing Chinese games since its release.
