Finnish mobile game developer Bit Odd has raised €17 million in a funding round led by Griffin Gaming Partners, with additional participation from Makers Fund, Index Ventures, and other investors.
The funding will help support the studio's upcoming free-to-play multiplayer action game, currently in development for iOS and Android, and slated for release next year.
"We started Bit Odd because we felt something was missing in gaming today," said Lasse Louhento, co-founder of Bit Odd. "The mobile gaming surge has been incredible, but it has also steered many studios toward finance-first."

"Our approach is a bit different. We focus on designing games that stir the soul, embrace quirkiness, and tap into the emotional magic of gaming classics."
Pierre Planche of Griffin Gaming Partners stated, "Launching something truly original in gaming takes guts, authenticity, and an unshakable passion for the craft. In an era where data is often the core driver for design, Bit Odd is charting a different course. We're excited to back Louhento and a team of next-gen talent."
