Moscow video game studios have successfully signed export contracts totaling over a billion rubles since the beginning of the year. They participated in eight business missions abroad, according to the press service of the capital's Department of Culture.
According to Natalya Sergunina, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, 36 contracts were concluded as a result of business visits, and several more projects are under discussion.
In the near future, users from countries such as China, India, Egypt, and the United Arab Emirates will get acquainted with Moscow video games.
One of the Moscow companies managed to agree on testing and promoting a VR product that combines elements of popular mobile, настольных и компьютерных игр. It is planned to be distributed in the MENA regions — the countries of the Maghreb and the Middle East.
Partners from the UAE have already acquired the rights to publish a simulator where players can try themselves as interior designers. Two releases are expected in the Chinese market: a team-tactical game and a magical adventure with puzzle elements. Moscow developers also intend to participate in the creation of interactive tourist content for national parks and cultural routes in Indonesia.
