Company profile
researched Aug 2026End Game Interactive (ENDGAME, end.gg) is a US-based game developer building cross-platform, real-time multiplayer games for web and mobile. Its published portfolio includes Zombs Royale, a browser and mobile battle royale title, plus the web games Betrayal, Fishington and BOPZ.io, and the mobile titles Super Squad (multiplayer co-op) and Match City Puzzle. Earlier browser titles included Zombs.io and Spinz.io.
The company began by building third-party companion websites and apps for existing games, including PokeVision, a tool for locating Pokemon in Pokemon GO. Inspired by the success of simple browser-based multiplayer games such as Slither.io, the founders shifted to making their own games, releasing Zombs.io, Spinz.io and then Zombs Royale in early 2018. Following the 2020 seed round, the company said it would use the capital to fund repeated attempts at cross-platform multiplayer games, including Fate Arena, an auto-battler in the auto chess genre planned for PC, mobile and other platforms with a 3D, higher-fidelity art style than its earlier 2D work.
Founding story
End Game Interactive was founded by Yang C. Liu (CEO) and Luke Zbihlyj. The pair initially built third-party websites and apps tied to existing games, most notably PokeVision, a site for finding Pokemon in Pokemon GO. Observing the popularity of simple browser-based multiplayer games such as Slither.io, they moved into original game development, shipping Zombs.io, Spinz.io and then Zombs Royale, which was built in under four weeks and launched in early 2018.
Traction
Company titles have collectively attracted more than 160 million players, with a peak of one million players in a single day and around one million daily active users at peak, plus a Discord community of about 400,000 members. Zombs Royale was among the ten most Googled games in the United States in 2018.
Latest developments
The company's site lists an expanded portfolio spanning web games (Betrayal, Fishington, BOPZ.io, Zombs Royale) and mobile titles (Super Squad, Match City Puzzle, Zombs Royale).

Market position

Technology

Go-to-market
Titles are distributed directly through the web and mobile app platforms, with community engagement centered on a Discord server of roughly 400,000 members.
