With over 100,000 mobile installs pre-launch, Game Jolt kicked off 2022 with 4,000,000 monthly active users across their website, mobile and desktop app. “It’s clear to us that Gen Z is tired of generic social media and they want a place specifically for gaming that supports all types of content they’re creating–art, videos, thoughts, and livestreams all in one place,” said Game Jolt founder and CEO Yaprak DeCarmine.
After securing $2.6 million in seed funding in the Fall from tech leaders including the founders of Twitch and Rec Room, Game Jolt’s expansion into mobile will capture the next generation of gamers who spend 5+ hours a day on their phones with $360 billion in disposable income according to Bloomberg.
The team plans to spend the next few months implementing monetization opportunities within the creator economy on the platform and “turning Game Jolt into a 24/7 party where there’s always something fun going on for our users to participate in,” said DeCarmine.
The Game Jolt app is available to install on both the Apple App Store and Google Play today. To celebrate the mobile launch, Game Jolt will be giving away a PlayStation 5 and Alienware x15 gaming laptop through an in-app contest. Download the app to participate!
