Virtuos CEO Gilles Langourieux, describes Virtuos as “platform-agnostic” when describing the work scope for Virtuos Kuala Lumpur, though he says they aren’t so quick to jump on the controversial NFTs
Update: a previous version of this article had Gilles mention CESA, when in fact he said CSR. The article has been amended accordingly
At the launch for Virtuos Kuala Lumpur on Friday, he shared that the company has not been investing aggressively in NFTs yet due to gameplay and environmental reasons.
“NFTs, we are not investing aggressively yet”, the Virtuos CEO says. “We’re testing, but we’re not investing aggressively because we see too many issues. We see ethical issues, gameplay issues, environment issues. For example, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) policies says we have to reduce our carbon footprint. Most NFTs rely on blockchain, which is sucking up energy. It’s a contradiction”.
“We’re just saying they have some problems right now we’d like to help solve those problems. Once they are, then we’ll begin our investment. We’re just avoiding the gold rush”, he says.
That being said, while he didn’t confirm any ongoing projects, he did say that Virtuos would be just as open to working on mobile games as they are triple-A titles.
“Recently, mobile devices have become as powerful as previous generations of console devices. Today, about 30% of our business is related to mobile titles. We contribute to titles from Activision, Candy Crush by Zynga”, he says. “Developers in China, Korea mostly focusing on mobile, are also working with us”
Similarly, Mufizal Mokhtar, General Manager of Virtuos Kuala Lumpur also said there would be no bias between the two types of games- the Virtuos plan is to make games, period.
“We should be able to work on every type of game because game development at its core essence, should be the same”, he says. Of course there are some special requirements, like on mobile vs consoles or PC, but for Virtuos Kuala Lumpur, our ambition is to be able to work on all platforms”.
