Playtika Holding Corp. announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire SuperPlay, a mobile gaming company based in Tel Aviv, Israel, for $700 million, and additional contingent consideration of up to $1.25 billion, subject to achieving certain financial targets over three years. The transaction is expected to add an experienced team to Playtika with a track record of launching new, successful games, and is expected to be a meaningful growth driver for Playtika once consummated.
Founded in 2019 by former Playtika employees Gilad Almog and Eyal Netzer, along with industry veteran Elad Drory, SuperPlay has emerged as expert game makers with two successful titles – Dice Dreams, a fast-growing Coin Looter game, and Domino Dreams, a popular Board game, and two more games currently in development. In 2024, both Dice Dreams and Domino Dreams have grown rapidly, boasting a combined 1.7 million Average Daily Active Users as of August. Gilad and Eyal will continue to lead SuperPlay as its own studio within Playtika.
“We see the acquisition of SuperPlay as a key move in strengthening Playtika’s leadership in mobile gaming, driving growth with scaled titles, and unlocking new opportunities. SuperPlay’s proven talent and success in navigating complex environments align seamlessly with our team. Together, we’re expanding our ability to deliver exceptional experiences to players worldwide,” said Robert Antokol, Chief Executive Officer.
“We’re incredibly excited for this opportunity. It is a testament to our amazing team who bring creativity and passion to everything we make. With Playtika’s backing and support, we’ll continue growing the most memorable and engaging games in their category, and exchange knowledge that will propel each other to new heights,” said Gilad Almog and Eyal Netzer.
