May 29, 2013 — Wargaming, the leading free-to-play massively multiplayer online developer and publisher, today announced its further global expansion with the opening of its newest publishing office in Tokyo, Japan. The Tokyo office marks the company’s 15th office around the world, made even more special by the fact that this year the company is celebrating its 15th anniversary.
The newly opened office will focus on publishing duties, including marketing, public relations, customer service, and customer support for World of Tanks as that title rolls out in Japan.
“As Wargaming continues its global expansion, there’s no possible way we can ignore the importance of the Japanese market,” said Victor Kislyi, CEO of Wargaming. “Besides being one of the major video games markets in the world, it’s also a place where free-to-play gaming is growing by leaps and bounds.”
“We’ll be staffing our new Tokyo office with the best and brightest from the country, all with the goal of providing our players there with an incomparable customer experience,” added Kislyi.
“Being part of the Wargaming family, as they continue their dominance of the free-to-play market, is truly exciting,” said Yasuhiro Kawashima, General Manager of Wargaming Japan. “We look forward to helping expand Wargaming’s presence in Japan now and in the future.”
In the wake of today’s announcement, Wargaming Japan is welcoming skilled professionals from around the globe to join its team.
