Since that realization Hypemasters has embarked on a mission to create legendary & genre-defining games that players all over the world enjoy for years.” I desperately wanted to be in that group of creators.

Because I love playing unique & well-executed games.” However, throughout that first year, I have realized that I want to focus Hypemasters on games that define the industry – ambitious, unique and well-executed. ![]() We started off with small games and a very small team. In an email to GamesBeat, Kalmykov said, “Back in 2019, I was simply thinking of starting ‘my own thing.’ It was an urge to create, to lead and to self-manifest that I couldn’t satisfy in any of the jobs I was doing. “At the moment, there are no popular mobile games on the market that could be called “True RTS”, and we believe that World War Armies can take a leading position in this niche.” “Hypemasters is a team that is not afraid to experiment and go their own way, not copying other successful games, creating unique products – these are the companies GEM Capital strives to support,” said Roman Gurskiy, games and entertainment leader at GEM Capital, in a statement. In TGF, we are big fans of RTS genre as players and as investors and I see an explosive potential for World War Armies.” “That allows them to naturally attract investors and the best talents who want to create groundbreaking games and be proud of their work. I’m absolutely in love with the Hypemasters corporate culture and values,” said Maria Kochmola, managing partner at The Games Fund, in a statement. “We are witnessing Hypemasters evolving from the day one as early investors and happy to continue supporting Boris and the team. The company will use the money to make World War Armies as well as complete a buyout of earlier investor MGVC. Previously the company raised pre-seed and seed rounds from The Games Fund, MGVC, and AII Corporation. World War Armies is currently in open beta and scheduled to be released worldwide this summer. We look into the future with an excitement and much optimism.” This is a new chapter on a path of an independent global company journey, and we feel privileged to be working with professional gaming VC’s. He added, “At this point we also part our ways with MGVC and want to thank them for a great kickstart and all the support they provided during our journey. “Funding from new partners - GEM Capital and Ludus - together with follow-on investment from TGF will help us strengthen the team, launch World War Armies and continue growing beyond a single game.” World War Armies is a mobile RTS. “This is a breakthrough moment for Hypemasters,” said Boris Kalmykov, Hypemasters cofounder and CEO, in a statement.
