Industry vets found new indie publisher Gambit Digital

Industry veterans have set up a brand new indie publisher called Gambit Digital. 

The venture is being headed up by CEO Zac Antonaci, who previously worked at Kepler Interactive and Frontier Development in publishing roles. Meanwhile, commercial director Chad Young, who also worked at Frontier, while publishing director Kevin Chancey joins having recently been GM at marketing firm Purple is Royal. 

Gambit Digital is part of Montreal's Indie Asylum, a local network of over 200 devs across 18 studios. 

“Publishing today has to be more than a transaction—it has to be a long-term partnership,” Antonaci said. 

“At Gambit Digital, we’re focused on helping and working hand in hand with developers not just to launch their games, but to build sustainable long-term momentum. From porting to post-launch growth, our mission is to expand possibilities and give studios the tools and opportunities to thrive in an ever-changing global market.” 

Chancey added: “Gambit Digital exists to tilt the playing field in favor of developers. We’re builders ourselves. We know what it means to take risks, to scale up, and to find the right partners. Gambit is here to give studios the choice, flexibility, and firepower to succeed—without losing sight of why we make games in the first place.”
