GigaMedia increases focus on social casino, plans launch suite of casino games

As many developers shift toward social casino games, Taipei-based GigaMedia announced that it would be launching a new suite of casino games last Tuesday. The new suite will be released in approximately the next four weeks.

The company plans on developing games for both mobile and desktop to build a strong multi-platform offering. It will use its existing FunTown gaming platform to drive increased growth in 2013 and beyond.

“We are targeting the highest-spending social gamers in the world’s largest mobile games market — Asia,” said GigaMedia CEO Collin Hwang in a statement.
