Wildlife is a big mobile game developer and publisher, and it’s getting bigger. It’s opening a second independent game studio, SuperWow Games, in Austin, Texas; and Melbourne, Australia.

Lu Gigliotti, who has worked on numerous games at Rockstar, Electronic Arts, and Ninja Theory, will lead the studio, which will be spread across both Austin and Melbourne. As Wildlife focuses on mobile games with its central publishing platform, it’s a good bet that SuperWow Games will work on mobile, but the exact platforms for its work hasn’t been announced yet.
