Live Tech Games secures £1million investment to pioneer new wave of mobile entertainment

Live Tech Games has just announced it has closed a second successful six-digit funding round, with prominent business Angel Investors.

‘Raising investment in one lockdown was a challenge and we never expected to have to do it for a second round. We saw so much promise for the future of Live Tech Games in the beta launch of our first app and we were delighted our investors felt the same. The early success points towards a growing commercial opportunity in the B2B and media sectors and this incredible investment will allow us to reinforce the potential Live Tech Games has to be a leading industry pioneer.’ says Nathan Moore, CEO and Co-Founder of Live Tech Games.

Live Tech Games is a unique platform that combines mobile entertainment and live gaming tournaments, on an exclusive as well as a national scale. It fills the gap in the mobile gaming industry for live, light-hearted games; competitive but inclusive; commitment-free and with the capacity for high reward. Its first app Roshambo Live thrilled UK players with its simple but iconic concept: live, knock-out rounds of Rock Paper Scissors, beating out opponents for the chance to win £1,000. Free to play and taking just five minutes, Roshambo Live has brought excitement and adrenaline to players up and down a country in lockdown.

With an unexpected year of lockdowns, Live Tech Games pivoted its offering to provide private, company-specific games. HR departments have used Roshambo Live to connect with workforces whilst they work from home, and pubs and bars are already signing up to host private Roshambo Live games in their venues as we start to move out of lockdown. The unique capability of the technology to offer both a nationwide game for thousands of players, and private games that are specific to venues and offices, sets Live Tech Games leagues above other studios launching this year.

Currently relanching Roshambo Live following the open beta last year, the initial player stats have been extremely positive showing great user engagement and feedback, with the app reaching #3 in the App Store charts within just a week of its relaunch. The app grew steadily, proving much more popular than anticipated in the open beta stage and organically creating a dedicated and thriving community of Roshambo Live players. Whilst it began as a competitive live gaming experience with high rewards, Roshambo Live has also opened up a space for connection and a socially distanced thrill throughout lockdown. With its standalone technology for live, knock-out tournament-style rounds of simple, family-friendly games, Roshambo Live pairs players up across the country making it possible to connect with family and friends from a safe distance. Challenging other households and comparing scores on weekly boards has proven a great way to connect across lockdowns and introduce games to the ‘non-gamers’.

Live Tech Games was created by Co-CEOs and Founders Nathan Moore and Samuel Worsley after leaving Microsoft to build their own business, less than two years ago. At Microsoft they both gained invaluable experience in software and managing tech development teams, and brought this into their creation of Live Tech Games, a platform focused on delivering B2B and B2C live entertainment experiences for the nation.

OUD and SuperGaming Launch Prime Rush in Brazil, Bringing Battle Royale and Extraction Gameplay for Mobile

oud-and-supergaming-launch-prime-rush-in-brazil,-bringing-battle-royale-and-extraction-gameplay-for-mobile
  • Prime Rush is now live in Brazil on Google Play Store for Android and the App Store for iOS
  • Features a dual win condition through survival or Cosmium extraction, new Brazilian heroes, and tactical abilities
  • Launches with Ranked Season 1, Battle Pass Season 1: Street Legends, and multiple limited-time modes

Prime Rush, a new mobile shooter combining battle royale survival with extraction-style gameplay, has officially launched in Brazil on the Google Play Store for Android and the App Store for iOS. Developed by SuperGaming in partnership with Spacecaps, the parent company of LOUD, the game has been built with direct feedback from Brazilian players and creators during its Closed Beta and Early Access phases.

Prime Rush introduces a unique twist to the traditional battle royale format. In addition to surviving until the end of the match, squads can secure an early victory by extracting Cosmium, a rare resource that spawns during the final circle. This dual win condition creates a match environment where squads must decide whether to outlast opponents in a final-circle finish or take a more tactical route to win through Cosmium extraction.

The game also features a flexible tactical ability system built for high-tempo mobile combat. Active Abilities such as DeadEye, Shield Dome, Super Speed, and Hunter’s Instinct allow players to approach matches through precision, defence, mobility, and intel respectively.

Speaking on this development Bruno Bittencourt, CEO of LOUD said, “Brazil has one of the most passionate gaming communities in the world, yet we’ve spent years playing games that weren’t built with us in mind. Prime Rush is a game created for Brazilian players, shaped daily by the communities we’ve built over the past decade. We’ve been listening to them every single day. It’s a game that finally feels like home.”

Brazil has one of the most competitive mobile shooter audiences that we have seen, and from the start we wanted Prime Rush to be both authentic and accessible,” said Roby John, CEO and Co-founder of SuperGaming. “For us, that meant building a game that feels true to Brazil while also making sure it runs smoothly across a broad range of devices so more players can experience it the way it was meant to be played.”

The battle takes place on the island of Maré, the setting for Prime Rush’s battle royale extraction experience. Prime Rush also includes a Mini TDM mode (Favela). This is a quick 4v4 mode designed for shorter, high-intensity firefights on the go.

At launch, the game introduces a lineup of new Brazilian heroes including Juliana, Rafael, Miguel, Rogério, Dos Santos, Julia, and Gustavo, with character customization allowing players to personalize their experience. Players can also customize their weapon experience with the new Evo-X skins. These are upgradeable gun skins featuring three switchable Chromas, enhanced visuals and VFX, unique inspect and reload animations, custom fire SFX, unique kill feed treatment, and distinct muzzle and tracer effects.

Prime Rush goes live with multiple limited-time modes including DeadEye Rush, Pants in the Air, and Weapon Roulette, offering players shorter duration matches for quick jump-in and jump-out between sessions beyond its core battle royale extraction gameplay.

The game launches with its first Ranked Season, allowing players to climb through Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Champion, Legend, and Cosmic.

Prime Rush is now available to download in Brazil on the Google Play Store for Android and the App Store for iOS.

Season 1 Battle Pass: Street Legends

The Season 1 Battle Pass: Street Legends is also here, bringing a new lineup of rewards for players as they progress through the season. These include:

  • New Avatars: Laura, Juliana, Rafael
  • Weapon Skins: Subliminar, Grafitada, Suavidade, Firmeza, Raiz, Brabo, AK-BR7
  • Melee Weapon: Chinela (Slipper)
  • Vehicle Skin: Lenda Urbana
  • Additional Rewards: Stickers, Dive Trails, Emotes, and Portraits

Prime Rush System Requirements

Powered by SuperPlatform, SuperGaming’s in-house tech-stack, Prime Rush currently supports Android 7 and above with 4GB RAM, as well as iOS 15 and above. Based on Early Access performance reports, the game delivers a stable 40 FPS on lower-end devices with recommended graphics settings, while mid to high-end devices can achieve up to 60 FPS.

This makes Prime Rush playable across a wide range of mobile devices, helping ensure that more players in Brazil can access the game on both Android and iOS.

SuperGaming is continuously optimizing Prime Rush to support more devices over time. Performance and visual fidelity may vary depending on hardware and user-selected graphics settings.
