The online gaming market, often a walled garden for large studios, is about to see a new open-source challenger with significant financial backing. Irish startup W4 Games has closed an $18.0M Series B funding round, attracting investment from a notable group including Tencent, OSS Capital, Lux Capital, and Naval Ravikant.
W4 Games is developing a cloud platform based on open-source technology, with the ambitious goal of revolutionizing and democratizing the online multiplayer market for all independent developers. This fresh capital infusion will support its efforts to unlock new possibilities for creators in the gaming industry.
