"By becoming a standalone listed company, Asmodee’s 30-year journey is entering its next phase. Over the years, we have become a global leader in tabletop games, combining renowned games and intellectual properties with our global distribution footprint to serve both our own games and those of our partners," says Thomas Kœgler, CEO of Asmodee. "We, and the entire industry, live in very exciting times. Tabletop games have demonstrated that they're an integral part of the social fabric, bringing people together, from which arise tremendous opportunities for Asmodee to continue to grow in its core business and to continue to explore the extension of our brands into other forms of entertainment. I couldn't be prouder of Asmodee and our teams as we enter this new era of our long-term profitable growth journey with our listing."

"This marks an important milestone for Embracer shareholders. We now very much look forward to establishing Asmodee as a standalone listed company and further strengthen it as a market leader in tabletop gaming", says Lars Wingefors, Chairman of the Board of Asmodee.

The three entities will become separate, publicly traded companies in order to better focus on their respective core strategies. This change will affect the GSA companies [Deca](/company/deca-live-operations) (Berlin), [Plaion](/company/plaion) (Munich/Höfen) and [THQ Nordic](/company/thq-nordic) (Vienna). Deca and THQ Nordic will become part of Coffee Stain & Friends (WT), Plaion will become part of Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends (WT).
