By collaborating with leading console, PC and mobile publishers, Sumo Group supports the full development lifecycle, from concept through to post-launch live operations and downloadable content.
Originally founded as Sumo Digital in 2003, the broader Sumo Group plc was established in 2017 to bring together multiple studios under a single public-listed entity. The group has grown through a series of strategic acquisitions, notably integrating specialist art house Atomhawk in 2020, and development studio Auroch Digital later the same year. Additional additions such as Red Kite Games and Lab42 have expanded the company’s ability to deliver bespoke game development and support services.
