Merge Mansion developer Metacore expands to Berlin as Merge Mansion hits 50M downloads

Mobile game studio Metacore opens its first overseas location in Berlin, attracted by its reputation as a strong hub for games, tech and entertainment alike. The expansion coincides with a record-breaking year for their puzzle hit game Merge Mansion, which has just passed the 50 million download mark.

 

Metacore Games has today announced its expansion to Berlin, the first location abroad for the Helsinki-headquartered mobile game developer and one of Europe’s fastest growing game companies. The expansion follows a year of strong growth for Metacore, whose mystery puzzle game Merge Mansion just passed the 50 million download milestone and whose team has grown from 15 to over 170 professionals in just three years. Last year, Metacore generated EUR 129 million in revenue, and is continuing their strong growth this year supported by their second location.

 

"We’ve been planning our expansion and vetting different markets for quite some time now to support our growth and talent acquisition. We’re excited to finally reveal that we’re setting up shop in Germany. Berlin not only has some of the top games talent in the world, but it’s also a hotspot for creative industries and entertainment. We can’t wait to contribute to and collaborate with this vibrant ecosystem,” Metacore’s CEO Mika Tammenkoski says.

 

Berlin will initially serve as a home base for a newly established feature team working on Metacore’s first hit game Merge Mansion, a puzzle game that has charmed fans across the world with its mysterious characters, captivating story and lore. The game's marketing has become an internet sensation of its own, leveraging Hollywood talent such as Kathy Bates and Pedro Pascal in its campaigns.

 

“While the first team on the ground in Berlin will initially focus on Merge Mansion, we currently have multiple games under development and are constantly looking for new talent to help us create and bring new games to the market,” Tammenkoski continues.

 

Metacore is currently hiring for multiple positions such as producers, game designers and data analysts for both their Helsinki and Berlin locations.
