Indian games firm Nazara Technologies has acquired UK indie publisher Curve.
The company has paid ₹2.47bn ($28.9 million) for the London-based label, which is best known for the likes of Human Fall Flat and For the King. Curve will be keeping its office in the UK capital and the publisher will be keeping its current management.
The acquisition also includes its first-party studios, Brighton's Runner Duck and Vancouver's IronOak Games.
Nazara Technologies acquired Guildford-based Fusebox Games during 2024.
“This deal is a perfect fit," Curve Games' exec chair Stuart Dinsey (pictured) said.
"We’re joining a group that lives and breathes games and tech – including mobile, where we’ve barely scratched the surface. With Nazara, we will build on our strengths across console and PC, staying true to our indie spirit. It's still about great games, great studios, and great players. Our next chapter starts here.”
Nazara Technologies CEO Nitish Mittersain added: “Curve’s proven publishing expertise and strong track record with indie studios make them a perfect fit for Nazara’s vision in premium gaming. This acquisition not only brings valuable IP, global market access, and a highly experienced team into our fold – it also reflects our broader strategy of doubling down on core gaming. We’re committed to scaling high-quality game IPs, investing in new development, and supporting passionate indie creators as we build a global gaming powerhouse from India.”
