Scopely Hires Mike Seavers

The tech trailblazer brings a wealth of experience from his tenure as CTO at Riot Games, EVP of Development at Epic Games, and, most recently, CTO at Yuga Labs. Renowned for his contributions to the teams behind mega-franchise successes like Fortnite and League of Legends, Seavers' technical acumen in scaling audiences and communities, coupled with his cross-platform expertise, will be essential in continuing to drive innovation at Scopely and enhancing player experiences, specifically on console. Seavers joins at a transformative time for Scopely, fueled by the success and continued engagement of titles such as Monopoly GO!, Stumble Guys, Star Trek Fleet Command, Marvel Strike Force, and more. The blockbuster launch of Monopoly GO! made history as the most successful mobile game launch ever in the U.S., and the cross-platform hit party battle royale game Stumble Guys debuted on Xbox as the #1 top free game on the platform.

"With deep experience working with scaled global audiences and beloved franchises, Mike's expertise and leadership will propel our tech capabilities to new heights, allowing our teams to design solutions that drive our cross-platform—mobile, PC, web, console—experiences even further," said Scopely Chief Operating Officer Eunice Lee. "Partnering with our co-founder and CTO Ankur Bulsara, Mike's strategic vision will help shape the trajectory of Scopely's technological expertise and ensure we're leveraging emerging technologies to best enhance our player experiences and empower our world-class gamemakers. We are thrilled to have Mike on the Scopely adventure!"

"Scopely's hypergrowth and track record of delivering industry-leading experiences signals its upward momentum in the video game space," said Seavers. "Cross-platform hits like Stumble Guys highlight its ambition to create even more immersive and unforgettable experiences that bridge the gap between platforms and allow for seamless, interconnected player communities. I look forward to collaborating with the team to continue pushing the boundaries of innovation, and am also extremely excited about the many Scopely projects underway that I can't yet share!"
