HYDERABAD, India – Liquidnitro Games, a flagship Game Production and Live Services company, today announced that it has raised $19.1 million in Series A funding led by Northpoint Capital, with participation from existing early investor Nexus Venture Partners.
The funding will accelerate Liquidnitro’s investment across its proprietary AI-enabled Game Production & Live Services platform, scaling partnerships through co-investments, and global market expansion initiatives to provide global game publishers the compelling edge they need to win in the current market landscape.
An Operating Model for a Tougher Global Games Market
Over the next decade, the games that win will be the ones that can understand player motivations with precision and scale, across millions of players in highly diverse global markets. The real advantage will come from being able to continuously adapt gameplay systems, progression, and content experiences as games evolve, so they stay relevant, personal, and deeply engaging over time. It is now tougher than ever for publishers to win in the global games market.
The goal remains unchanged: to build games that are fun, engaging, and resonate across geographies, cultures, and player communities. Liquidnitro’s proprietary platform is built to enable exactly this, helping teams execute with speed and precision while evolving experiences contextually for every game, genre, platform, and player base.
Liquidnitro provides a decisive path forward with an integrated model: incentive-aligned engagement backed by its own capital, an AI-powered Game Production & Live Services platform, and deep operating expertise.
- AI-Powered Platform: A proprietary platform that delivers actionable insights and significantly accelerates game development, live services and geoadapted market expansions.
- Deep Operating Expertise: End-to-end production and live services led by industry veterans and teams who have built, launched and sustained large scale franchises across platforms and markets.
- Aligned Capital: Liquidnitro invests its own capital alongside partners, aligning incentives and taking shared responsibility for long-term game performance and outcomes.
In its first 24 months, Liquidnitro has partnered with a roster of leading global publishers, helping them build, operate, and scale some of the world’s largest games across platforms and geographies while maximizing profitability and driving substantial top-line growth.
“By combining over a decade of experience running some of the world’s biggest franchises, deep investments in our proprietary AI-powered platform, and capital we can dploy alongside partners, we’ve built a uniquely compelling value proposition for publishers navigating an increasingly challenging market,” said Sandeep Kowdley, CEO of Liquidnitro.
“Lie Services has followed the same formula for years, and we’re here to disrupt!” said Arun Kunchala, CPO of Liquidnitro. “We’ve been obsessively building our platform to power the next generation of games – unlocking deeper, richer, and more personalized experiences that players want to come back to.”
“Liquidnitro is quietly becoming the go-to AI-powered production, live services, and TAM expansion partner for the world’s leading game publishers. The pace at which they’ve partnered with top global publishers in such a short period speaks volumes about their execution and trustworthiness. Their ability to combine AI-driven live ops, deep P&L ownership, and aligned capital is creating a powerful new operating model for the industry,” said Sameer Brij Verma, Founder and CIO at Northpoint Capital.
Pratik Poddar, Partner at Nexus Venture Partners, added: “We have been a day-zero investor in Liquidnitro, backing them from the concept stage. Having watched this team execute since inception, it’s clear they are building a category-defining company. As the gaming industry is evolving, Liquidnitro’s operating model is exactly what global publishers need to succeed.”
With the new capital infusion, Liquidnitro will accelerate investment across talent, its proprietary AI platform, and incentive-aligned capital. The company will also deepen its operating footprint to support more global publishers across a wider range of franchises, platforms, and markets – with a particular focus on unlocking high-growth regions such as India, MENA, and Southeast Asia where Liquidnitro’s deep understanding of players and local dynamics, combined with its proprietary technology, provides partners with a clear and distinct advantage.
