Gaming
The Gaming industry is experiencing tremendous growth in all areas including iGaming (casinos, poker, bingo), online gaming, video gaming and console gaming. While Europe has generally led the way in iGaming and Europe along with the U.S. in entertainment gaming, China and India represent large emerging markets of gamers and game development talent.
One of the big challenges is finding a partner who has experience in developing front-end games and also understands the gaming ecosystem including mobile platforms and social networks.
Sierra Atlantic’s Outsourced product Development Division (OPD) has had tremendous success in delivering scalable solutions to a large variety of clients including large game publishers working on the next big blockbuster and smaller ISVs who are experiencing phenomenal growth in the online scene.
Gaming Practice at Sierra Atlantic
Sierra Atlantic recognizes the importance and size of the gaming vertical and has invested resources and capabilities in development, graphics, animation and QA teams & solutions to service this sector.
At Sierra Atlantic we recognize the importance of the mobile and social networking platforms. Both platforms provide and extend access to gamers and ISV gaming applications. As gamers continue to utilize mobile platforms and integrate into large social networks, access to and influence over these markets will be critical for the continued growth of applications and solutions providers in the iGaming & Entertainment space.
