Majesco Entertainment Acquires Orid Media and Pariplay

Majesco Entertainment Company, a provider of video games, announced this week the closing of the acquisition of the operations and substantially all of the assets of Orid Media Limited and Pariplay Limited by GMS Entertainment. Majesco has previously made a name for itself through the development of the successful Zumba Fitness game for Nintendo Wii.

Pariplay has expertise in three core areas, real money iGaming, real money iLottery and social gaming. The company will be continuing its work designing and developing both fixed odds and random based online and mobile games. The games are used in real money online, social and mobile casinos.

Jesse Sutton, CEO of Majesco Entertainment commented, “I am pleased that Pariplay has received the requisite regulatory approvals to allow us to complete our investment in this newly formed venture.

The iGaming, iLottery and social gaming segments of the online gaming market are growing rapidly, and looking ahead, additional jurisdictions are expected to legalize real money online gaming and lottery, which will fuel further market expansion and opportunity for GMS Entertainment.”
