Lionsgate Media Corporation invests in the publisher and developer of computer games Telltale Games. The exact amount of investment is not called. This was reported by the resource Pocketgamer.biz .
Recall that in 2014 Lionsgate decided to create a department of interactive products and games in order to master this profitable segment of the entertainment industry. Peter Levin was appointed to the post of head of the department. He immediately stated that the gaming industry should become a “pillar” of Lionsgate.
Investments in Telltale fit within the framework of this strategy. The companies will work together and create game projects that can become TV series – and vice versa.
The collaboration has already led to changes in the leadership of Telltale. Lionsgate CEO John Feltheimer has joined the board of directors of the gaming company.
