|content=Social First has secured $4.2 million in seed funding, with Crowberry Capital leading the round. Additional support came from Business Finland and increased investment from pre-seed backer Play Ventures.

The funding will be used to advance their upcoming untitled project, a cross-platform social MMO slated for early access later this year. Founded in late 2021 by former Kukouri executives Kim Soares and Mikko Kähärä, Social First is a studio of 20 industry veterans with experience from Ubisoft, Rovio, and Paradox Interactive.
