Rumble To Build and Publish Games Using $15M Series A From Google Ventures and Khosla

Rumble_Stacked_teal"We're a developer and a publisher trying to make triple A games that fit the digital lifestyle, are instantly accessible from anywhere, free to try, don't require a PhD to control, and that you can play for a short session length. It's an Activision Blizzard meets Zynga model." That's how CEO Greg Richardson describes his new gaming company Rumble, which just closed a $15 million Series A round from Google Ventures and Khosla Ventures. Rumble will build its own titles for the web, mobile, and social. It will also invest in and publish games from third-party developers through its system which provides analytics, CRM, and distribution across devices and platforms. This allows partnered developers to concentrate solely on building great games. With top industry talent, wise investors, solid funding, and a mission to bring console game quality where it's not usually, Rumble is looking to disrupt game companies overly focused on manipulative monetization.
