Canada-based PC & console UGC platform developer Voldex has acquired the Brookhaven from UGC content developer Wolfpaq for an undisclosed sum. While the exact valuation remains undisclosed, the estimate is above the $100m mark. Brookhaven is a first-by-popularity game in the roleplay genre and one of the most popular games in Roblox, with 120 million MAU and 60 billion visits since its release in Apr’20. This deal brings Voldex MAU to 145 million. This acquisition continues Voldex’s expansion activity following its acquisition of the Ultimate Football in Apr’24. The deal was supported with the Voldex Series B equity financing that was led by Raine Partners with participation from Makers Fund, QIA, MIT, Tirta Ventures, and Lalotte Ventures. The Raine Group’s Managing Director will join the Voldex Board of Directors. Additionally, Voldex has secured debt financing led by Shamrock Capital.
Voldex previously secured two funding rounds:
— In Feb’22, Voldex secured $3m in a Seed funding round led by Dune Ventures with participation from Makers Fund, POW! Interactive and other investors;
— In Jan’23, the company secured an undisclosed sum in a Series A funding round led by a16z, with participation from Dune Ventures, Makers Fund, and POW! Interactive.
Voldex’s acquisition of the Brookhaven is significant in the UGC gaming sector since it reflects the company’s continued expansion and strengthens its presence within the Roblox ecosystem.
