Lockwood Publishing announces games industry recruitment expert Peter Lovell as new Strategic Director of Talent Acquisition

Former Jagex, Zynga and NaturalMotion star to lead talent acquisition drive as Lockwood Publishing and Avakin Life look to become gaming’s biggest mobile metaverse creators.
With over 14 years of games industry, in-house recruitment experience, Peter Lovell has transformed some the UK games industry’s most renowned studios. He joins Lockwood Publishing after a landmark year for the developer, during which its globally loved 3D social app, Avakin Life, attracted its 200 millionth registered user and won a third TIGA Game of the Year award in-a-row.
“I’m blown away by the vision, ambitions and talent of this amazing company, and by the passion of its leaders and their values,” said Peter Lovell. “I’m truly excited to be joining at this important juncture as we supercharge Lockwood Publishing to the next level and beyond.”
Commenting on the stellar new addition to Lockwood Publishing, CEO, Halli Bjornsson, said: “We’re excited to bring Peter on board to grow our global top talent outreach and acquisitions, as we build Avakin further as an award-winning mobile metaverse. His energy and proven track record in the games industry is a great asset for Lockwood.”
“Lockwood has had phenomenal growth over the last few years with Avakin Life and we still have a long way to go to create an immersive virtual world for our users,” added Lockwood Publishing’s Studios Director, Karl Hilton. “Peter will continue to handpick the high-performance teams that can deliver the Avakin Life experience to millions more users across the globe.”
With more than 2,000,000 downloads each month and 70,000,000 chat messages sent every day, Avakin Life was recently highlighted as “pioneering the mobile metaverse space” in Newzoo’s games industry report “Intro to the Metaverse”. It embraces a new normal where everyone is free to be anyone in the digital world, and Lockwood Publishing calls on a global workforce to design that vision, with offices in Nottingham and Newcastle in the UK, as well as in Lisbon, Portugal and Vilnius, Lithuania.

Experience a unique Gacha adventure in BGaming’s Infinity Pull

Rapidly expanding content provider takes players on a thrilling anime journey in Infinity Pull
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming invites players to embark on an enchanting anime adventure with the launch of the mesmerising Infinity Pull. Step into a vibrant realm where three captivating goddesses await, each offering unique gameplay and winning opportunities.
Infinity Pull gives players unparalleled control over their gaming experience, enabling them to choose their path from the outset. Players select one of three enchanting waifus: the Blue, Purple, or the Golden. Each waifu represents a different volatility level, with the RTP ranging from 92 to 99%.
Gacha gameplay mechanics were the main inspiration behind Infinity Pull, with the BGaming design team drawing on their love of the genre. The game asks players to wager on cards revealed by the chosen waifu. These cards can award exciting multipliers and instant cash prizes, as well as collectable characters. The game’s unique collection aspect makes it endlessly replayable, with players eager to return and complete their sets. Every 25 duplicate cards collected also reveal an additional chapter of the chosen waifu’s bio, enriching the game’s narrative experience.
Beyond its unique gameplay and mechanics, Infinity Pull also offers flexibility for operators, with the game’s reskinnable design making it perfect for seasonal promotions and themed events.
Alex Baliukonis, Game Design Team Lead at BGaming, said: “We can’t wait to see how players react to what we have achieved with Infinity Pull. What’s great about it is that you don’t need to have ever played a gacha game to enjoy it. It can be picked up and played by anyone.
At BGaming, we are always trying to push the boundaries and try something new. We believe Infinity Pull has the potential to really capture the imagination of players and inspire a whole new take on casual gaming.”
