Dominik Heineccius Joins Daedalic Entertainment as Marketing Director

Dominik Heineccius is going back to his roots in the games business: after twelve years at Square Enix's German office, he is now taking up the position of Marketing Director at Daedalic Entertainment.

Dominik Heineccius began his career in the German games industry in 2007 at the Hamburg-based developer and publisher Daedalic Entertainment, where he is now returning as Marketing Director. “Daedalic was my entry into the industry and an unforgettable time,” explains Heineccius, ‘Over the years, I have remained in close contact with Daedalic and Carsten Fichtelmann, our CEO.’ Now, he is looking forward to actively shaping the future of Daedalic with this passionate team.

Heineccius also brings with him a wealth of experience in an international corporate environment. Over the past twelve years, he has worked in various positions for the German office of Square Enix, where he was responsible for the marketing of numerous top games.

“Dominik shares our vision for Daedalic and will enrich our team with his expertise. The fact that he started his journey at Daedalic and is now returning as an even more experienced marketing professional is something special for all of us,” says company founder and CEO Carsten Fichtelmann.

And Jonas Hüsges, since July (in German) COO of Daedalic, adds: "Dome is an absolute marketing all-rounder. He has taken both small and large brands to the next level at Daedalic and Square Enix. I'm very much looking forward to working with him and I'm sure we will celebrate great successes together."

Daedalic Entertainment has been one of Germany's leading publishers for almost 20 years. Since 2022, the company has been part of the French Nacon, but continues to operate as an independent publisher working with numerous indie developers.
