Hothead serves up a mobile game publishing division

Hothead Games has a slew of successful mobile games, such as Kill Shot, Hero Hunters, and the Big Win sports series. Now it’s going to share its know-how with smaller studios as it gets into third-party publishing.

The Canadian company announced today that it has created a new publishing division, taking submissions from indie studio and other small dev houses to use what Hothead has learned from years making games since 2006. Analyst firm SuperData pegged the mobile gaming market at $61.3 billion in 2018, and Hothead still sees opportunity as a third-party publisher here.
