Overwolf will pay out $29M to mod and app creators in 2021

Overwolf rebranded itself this week as a guild of in-game creators. And it is announcing today that it expects to pay out $29 million to players who create items to buy and sell in video games.

The Tel Aviv company targets its services, such as its CurseForge Core user-generated content platform, at modders and in-game app creators. And it is on a path to triple its payouts to those third-party creators this year, said Overwolf CEO Uri Marchand in an interview with GamesBeat.
