Playstack is on a mission to reinvent games publishing. Our London-based business was founded on the belief that even the greatest developers need support in order to create their best work. Playstack offers support in three key ways; investment and development funding, market leading publishing expertise, and UA capital to build player communities and enable games to rise up the charts. We’re proudly platform-agnostic. Our producers and product managers have world-class expertise across mobile, PC, VR/AR, and console. Our titles are featured by Apple and Google and have accrued over 20 million downloads. As well as delivering strong business for our partners, we’re proud to hear great feedback from the teams we work with, who value our transparency and approachability. If you’ve spent as long working in games as we have you’ll know that publishing partnerships only thrive when there’s trust and commitment from both sides. That’s what we seek. Once we find that creative spark or flash of genius in a developer’s idea we fully support them throughout the entire production process. And although this sounds cheesy, we know how staggeringly tough games development can be, so we will be there through thick and thin to make sure each game reaches its full potential. We support our developers with a whole range of services such as Investment, Soft-launch Intelligence, Porting, QA, Legal, Marketing, UA, and lots more. But we don’t like treading on toes - just tell us what you need and we will work to fill in the gaps. If you’re working on a game that you feel might fit with Playstack then get in touch. We will look at everything with an open mind and provide no-nonsense feedback. We’re also growing and always keen to add new people to the team. If you’re looking to work at a games publisher with drive and ambition, drop us a line: jobs@playstack.com

I spent an inspiring afternoon at the Save the Children UK headquarters, where the clear focus of the day was highlighting just how critical partner contributions are to their mission. Listening to their CEO, Moazzam Malik , we were met with a stark reality: 1 out of 5 children globally is currently growing up in conflict zones: it’s the toughest time since WWII to be a child. My biggest takeaway was his powerful call to action for the private sector. The true threat to vulnerable children is a breakdown of solidarity. To combat this, corporate partnerships, as well as keep fundraising, must also focus on knowledge sharing. It was incredibly reassuring to hear about the deep involvement of local communities. The charity operates on a profound truth: "The experts in the problem are the people in the problem." The afternoon then took an immersive turn with an ‘Emergency Appeal Simulation’—which was exactly as stressful as it sounds, offering a raw look into how quickly the team must mobilize when disaster strikes. To wrap up the day, I was shown a reconstruction of a typical Save the Children charity shop. I was so inspired by their approach to branded products like candles, moisturizers, and chocolate—all beautifully wrapped using labels designed from the drawings of the children they support. 🎨🍫 I am incredibly grateful for the invitation to connect, learn, and reflect on how our collective contributions keep global solidarity alive. Special thanks to.@Fiona Baxeter and the entire Save the Children UK team for hosting such a memorable event! 🤝✨ #CorporatePartnerships #SocialImpact #SaveTheChildren #GlobalSolidarity #CSR

Recently, our Founder and CEO Harvey Elliott and People Operations Manager Carmen Martino attended the Green Games Summit, hosted by Playing for the Planet. The summit brought together voices from across the games industry to explore how we can use our creativity and influence to drive positive environmental change. Harvey joined María Sayans, CEO of ustwo games, for a fireside chat exploring our sustainability journey at Playstack so far and how we plan to continue taking meaningful steps forward. The day continued with great discussions about how games can help connect players with nature and the growing impact of sustainability-focused in-game activations. #greengamessummit #playstack #playingfortheplanet

Reflecting on an incredible, inspiring day at the Green Game Summit! 🎮🌱 Last year, a powerful question popped out: “Maybe we are the leaders we have been waiting for?” This year, Sam Barratt challenged us to turn that question into a statement and truly take ownership. 👏 A massive highlight for me was the fireside chat with my line manager and Playstack CEO, Harvey Elliott, alongside María Sayans (CEO of ustwo games). Hearing Harvey speak so humbly about the very beginning of our journey towards sustainability made me incredibly proud. As Maria beautifully put it: “By doing more of these kinds of things, we will do more of these kinds of things.” (I also loved her bold idea of organising a summer conference with no air conditioning for the industry's decision-makers... and I’d say go even beyond that! 🥵👀) Here are my other key takeaways from the day: - Gamers care about Nature: With 82% of people valuing nature (Daniel Fowler), reaching them through existing titles is highly efficient since two-thirds of players replay their favourite games (Alice Ourliac). - Creatives as game changers: Professor Tim Lenton noted we must move 5x faster to hit climate goals, but stressed "positive tipping points." He cited the band A-ha sparking Norway’s EV revolution in the '80s—proof that collective social action works. It’s thanks to their early campaigns that today, 97% of cars in Norway are electric! - The power of repetition: Green actions are evolving into full gameplay seasons. The phenomenal Deborah Mensah-Bonsu (Supercell) shared that the Green Game Jam saw a 20% increase in play-time, with one activation boosting revenue by 32%. - Be brave: Shelby Iapoce-Lintz (Hasbro) reminded us to see the scale of the challenge yet remain fiercely determined to make things otherwise. Thank you Sam Barratt and Lisa Pak for the warm hospitality, thanks to all the attendees I met and exchanged ideas with. A special thank you also to Claudia Candiotto for co-chairing the afternoon discussion group I randomly joined. It was a wonderful opportunity to reflect together on the insights from the morning sessions I left energized to bring this determination, persistence, and creativity into our work at Playstack! 🌍🚀 Stay tuned! #GreenGameSummit #Sustainability #GamingIndustry #Leadership #Playstack #GamesForGood #ClimateAction
