We love games and we love technology

In March 2022, Bongfish started improvements on AI on Generation Zero before later designing and co-developing the flying machine Firebird. Towards the end of the year, the team started work on a prototype for an equipment DLC set to release in 2023.

 

Bongfish worked on the events The Waffenträger: Legacy as well as Art of Strategy, featuring new and unique mechanics for World of Tanks. Watch the trailer for Waffenträger 2022 and for Art of Strategy.

Bongfish took the reins on Star Stable Entertainment’s beloved app title Star Stable Horses. Besides adding new horses that can be transferred from the app to Star Stable Online, Bongfish will be expanding the Horses app by including new features, events and a general UI and art overhaul.

Due to the successful partnership between Bongfish and Microsoft, the subsidiary Blackshark.ai was formed. The blackshark.ai platform is already used in various industries ranging from autonomous driving, virtual sensor simulation for autonomous drones, gaming, mapping/navigation, location intelligence, earth observation, geospatial and insurance.

Bongfish worked on improving the core aspects of World of Tanks, by providing improvements to several core systems of player communication and user interface. Most notable are the additions of a new commander camera that helps players keep the overview in battle and a platoon matchmaker to allow players to find social groups with a similar skillset and interest to play together.

Over 3 years of smurfy updates and successfully releasing a UI revamp and a Kingdom Map addition by Bongfish, Popreach entered a purchase agreement to acquire Smurfs Mobile Games Catalogue from Bongfish and Flashman Games.

Bongfish continued on its path to release several large-scale maps within the WOT universe. Four maps with sizes of up to 9km² were released for old and new game modes, while also taking on responsibility of art direction for two of these maps.

The fruition of our collaboration with Wargaming brings epic 60 player battles on maps 9x the size of its original to World of Tanks. Player reactions are phenomenal. Release expected in 2019.

We invest in an in-house IP by taking over the largely successful Smurfs’ Village mobile game from Capcom/Beeline Inc. Our history of successful collaboration with large brands helped us renew the Smurfs license with IMPS/La Fig. A dedicated team focuses on licensed IP development & live service.

An open and diverse studio culture paired with our passion for authentic gameplay in vast open spaces enables us to enter our first co-development venture.
