Flipkart has strengthened its gaming strategy through the acquisition of Intellectual Property from mobile gaming startup 'Mech Mocha'.
In addition to the acquisition of the company’s IP, Mech Mocha’s skilled gaming team will also join Flipkart as the company continues to focus on developing new and innovative formats to engage with users on its platform.
Mech Mocha runs India's first live-social gaming platform 'Hello Play'. The platform is in seven Indian local languages and has more than 10+ games including popular Indian multiplayer games such as Ludo, Carrom, Snakes & Ladder and Cricket.
Arpita Kapoor, Co-Founder & CEO, Mech Mocha, said, “With Vocal for Local being the focus for digital apps across the nation, this strategic backing of Flipkart provides us with an opportunity to be part of a larger ecosystem that helps us create unique social gaming experiences for Indian users. We look forward to being a part of the Flipkart ecosystem and leveraging the Flipkart Cloud Platform, Super Coins, Reward store and Flipkart Ads platform to strengthen the platform for our users.”
Prakash Sikaria, Vice-President, Flipkart, stated, “At Flipkart, we are focused on providing consumers with an opportunity to access great products and content while giving them an engaging experience. Through this transaction, we will strengthen our capabilities in the gaming domain with access to Mech Mocha's IP, games and talented team that will help us accelerate our efforts in this space.”
