Gameforge, a leading provider of MMO games for European regions, has become the North American publisher for the digital trading card game (TCG) HEX: Shards of Fate in a move aimed at building the first foothold for the Company’s expansion into North America. The partnership between HEX Entertainment in Lake Forest, California, and Gameforge, based in Karlsruhe, Germany, will increase the strength and support for the development of the title, while providing longevity and stability for the highly competitive players of the game.

.

Carsten van Husen, Gameforge AG CEO, expressed his confidence in the strength of the partnership, the game, and the Company’s publishing plans, saying, “A short time ago a pesky lawsuit between HEX Entertainment LLC and Wizards of the Coast was resolved and we just started the great HEX Invitational Tournament with prize money totaling $100,000 USD. In cooperation with our splendid developer, we can now offer HEX, the digital trading card game for pro-players, even more seamlessly on both sides of the Atlantic!”

Having them become the publisher in NA and EU will allow us at HEX Entertainment to focus on the development of this amazing game,” adds Cory Jones, CEO of HEX Entertainment LLC.
