MUNICH, Germany (Dec. 22, 2021) — MegaDev, the inventive developers behind PLITCH, are looking back on a record-breaking year, full of growth and excitement for the fast-rising company.
The momentum kicked off with January's Series A funding announcement, receiving an additional $1.9 million, which allowed the company to add more team members and grow its overall footprint. MegaDev continued to establish PLITCH as the leading "trainer software" for PC games, adding support for approximately 720 new games in 2021, growing its user base, hiring several employees, and even building a new COVID-safe office.
More people than ever before were able to use PLITCH, as the software was localized in four additional languages, bringing the total languages supported up to six: English, French, German, Spanish, Polish and Turkish. This also includes dedicated customer support staff for each of the languages, and there are plans to further expand the language options in 2022.
In the past 12 months, the company has also made an adjustment by establishing a middle-management level. In addition, the number of employees increased by 100%, which resulted in the redesign and expansion of the modern and loft-like office. Plans were delayed due to the knock-on effects of the pandemic, but MegaDev back on track with opening a U.S. office for further expansion.
“2021 has been a year of immense growth for MegaDev as well as the PLITCH platform,” said MegaDev co-founder and CEO Robert Maroschik. “Since our Series A announcement in January, we’ve grown our user-base, games supported, languages supported, and employee count, and we’re excited to continue this momentum in 2022.”
Going into 2022, MegaDev is investing heavily into marketing and social media, and building a community of people who enjoy customizing their PC games. The PLITCH brand will be further expanded, and successful formats such as the charity live stream will be maintained.
PLITCH is the customization platform that lets you game the way you want to, with customizations for over 3,150 single-player experiences! The platform is continually growing and supporting the latest and most-coveted games. Learn more about PLITCH at plitch.com.
