Roboto Games raises $15M, working on survival and crafting MMO

Roboto Games announced today it has closed a $15 million round of fundraising. The studio, which is currently hiring for more workers, is working on a new game that supports user-generated content and offers optional NFT ownership.

Roboto is a “remote work-friendly” studio based in San Mateo, California. It was founded by Curt Bererton, CEO, and Mathilde Pignol, CCO. Its new game, codenamed Foragers & Fighters, is a “bite-sized survival/crafting MMO with character collection and optional digital asset ownership.” It will also have a UGC ecosystem. Roboto calls it “Minecraft meets Animal Crossing” on its website.
