Board Game Arena Acquired By Asmodee

 

Board game distributor Asmodee has picked up the digital platform Board Game Arena to expand its virtual board game offering.

 

 

Founded in 2010, Board Game Arena provides official online versions of over 250 tabletop games supported in 40 different languages, including Asmodee games like the joint-published Carcassonne, Jaipur, and 7 Wonders.

Board Game Arena will remain independent with current management still at the helm, similar to other Asmodee entities.

The new partnership should allow Asmodee games to become available faster on the platform — starting with Skull and Splendor in the coming weeks — as well as increase the visibility of Board Game Arena.

“Having a platform that allows players from all over the world to meet, play their favorite games together or discover new games is a natural fit alongside our amazing catalog of board games,”  Thomas Koegler, Head of Strategy at Asmodee.
