NODWIN Gaming will acquire 100 per cent of Ninja Global FZCO, Nazara Technologies announced on Wednesday.

The strategic acquisition unlocks a plethora of new opportunities and also opens doors to numerous fresh possibilities for us as a leading gaming and esports media company, he added.

As NODWIN Gaming actively broadens its global footprint, with a special focus on key emerging markets within the new BRICS+ global network, the integration of Ninja is a natural and essential step forward. This move positions us to empower local esports ecosystems, understand, and unlock the potential of multiple emerging markets.”

Gokhan Kazar, CEO of Ninja company will leverage his experience and insights to oversee operations in the Middle East region for NODWIN Gaming, while Doruk Demisar along with Bilge Karageyik of PublishMe will collaborate to spearhead Turkish operations.
