Adverty announces collaboration with Oracle Moat to enhance measurement across its in-game advertising platform
Leading in-game advertising platform, Adverty, today announced a collaboration with Oracle Moat, to provide enhanced measurement and verification for in-game ad traffic and impressions. Oracle Moat’s iconic verification solution will give publishers, agencies and advertisers access to trusted third-party measurement for in-game ad campaigns.
Adverty’s mission is to deliver seamless advertising which connects brands and audiences through its revolutionary technology, built specifically for gaming, at a time when more than three billion people around the world play video games regularly.
Tobias Knutsson, CEO of Adverty explains: “We are delighted to announce this collaboration with Oracle Moat at a time when third-party measurement is more essential than ever for building effective media strategies, growing industry confidence, and fostering trust and understanding when it comes to burgeoning in-game media environments. Oracle Moat is a world leader in measurement and by working together we can help ensure that our solutions give advertisers the confidence they need to invest in this increasingly important channel.”
With an ever-increasing number of advertisers looking for in-game advertising at scale, in a largely untapped but hugely exciting media frontier, this collaboration will help inform buying decisions and empower advertisers.
Mark Kopera, Head of Product for Oracle Moat, says: “As in-game advertising expands across the media mix, so does the need for advertisers to understand key indicators of media quality and detect any fraudulent activity inside games. We’re excited to join efforts with Adverty to give advertisers the tools they need to make more informed, data-driven decisions, and reach valuable audiences across this increasingly important media channel.”
Today’s announcement is a key milestone in Adverty’s commitment to create the most trustworthy in-game platform for brands, advertisers and game developers, and will give more brands the confidence they need in order to invest in in-game advertising and to unlock previously unreachable audiences.
“At Adverty, our number one priority is ensuring that in-game advertising is brand-safe, unobtrusive and immersive. We look forward to continuing to create amazing in-game advertising experiences with our partners,” adds Knutsson.

Reading Time: 2 minutes
Celebrated strategy game The Battle of Polytopia confirms its first ever World Championships has exceeded expectations with over 10,000 sign-ups in its qualifying rounds. While no stranger to tournaments, previously hosting smaller scale, local tournaments called ‘Polysseums’, developer Midjiwan’s first step into global esports has been met with extreme success. The inclusive esports event has a $10,000 prize pool and will conclude on 6 December 2025, 14:00-21:00.
The finals will take place in front of a live-studio audience, with expert commentary and a chance to peek behind the scenes at Midjiwan itself. First place will receive $4,000, the runner-up will take away $2,000, the third and fourth place finishers will get $1,500, and the fifth and sixth place $500.
The Polytopia World Championship 2025 is being hosted by eSports platform, Challengermode, who Midjiwan has relied on for its monthly local tournaments since 2022. Midjiwan also partnered with Black Molly Entertainment to help organise and manage the event. Black Molly Entertainment have years of experience managing eSports tournaments, with notable events including the Geoguesser World Cup and CS:GO Pinnacle Cup Championship.
Midjiwan has worked closely with its community to ensure engagement is high with each round, building a bespoke ‘Spectator Mode’ into the game so fans can watch each game live through the game itself. In the spectator mode the viewer has visibility of all players simultaneously, with stats on how many cities, technologies, kills and more available for quick access.
Christian Lovstedt, CEO of Midjiwan commented:
“Polytopia has always been about welcoming all kinds of players into the world of 4X strategy. That’s why our championship is open to everyone – not just pros with sponsors. We’ve been thrilled at the amount of interest this tournament received from our community, reaching participation numbers way beyond our expectations. We’re excited to bring the finalists to Stockholm and can’t wait to see the strategies that emerge.”
The Polytopia World Championship 2025 kicked off in September, with its ‘Battle of the Tribes’ qualifying round – weekly battles where players competed to be the best in each of the game’s 12 tribes. After an exciting six weeks, the top player from each tribe faced-off, reducing the qualifiers to six finalists. These six winners are listed down below.
