Megabit Publishing, Aonic's first and third party publishing arm, has just released its first game, Grit and Valor - 1949. Mostovoy's role will include maximising the synergies of these teams.
Arthur Mostovoy, Head of Games: "After nearly six amazing years at Larian, I can't wait to dive into this new role at Aonic. There's so much to be excited about happening throughout our teams, across platforms, audiences and genres. We are entering a golden age of indies and small teams, resulting in some incredibly creative games. The market share for small and indie teams is growing year on year, and this will continue. My role at Aonic is to support these teams in creating and delivering creative titles that can make a major impact."
Aonic co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Olliver Heins, adds: "Aonic is building something truly exciting and welcoming a talent like Arthur is a significant step in what we are working towards. His track record speaks for itself and his experience will be invaluable in helping us achieve our ambitions."
