Overwolf and Intel create $7 million fund to invest in apps and mods for hardcore gamers

Overwolf and Intel have teamed up to create a $7 million fund to invest in apps and mods for hardcore gamers. The idea is to support the PC gaming community with a fund for developers working on game applications, modifications, or game services that enhance the experience of today’s PC games.

“We continuously look for opportunities to help developers create awesome experiences that make today’s top games even more fun to play,” said Uri Marchand, CEO at Overwolf, an Israeli firm that enables overlays on existing apps. “We’ve designed the fund’s evaluation process to be simple and fast so that developers can focus 100 percent of their efforts on making the best possible application, mod or game extension.”
