Gaming publisher Valofe has executed a significant strategic maneuver, officially acquiring the intellectual property rights for the popular action RPG, Soulworker, from Lion Games. This pivotal transaction builds upon Valofe’s earlier engagement, as they assumed operational management of the game in late 2023. This move mirrors previous successes, such as the integration of Kritika and Last Origin into Valofe’s portfolio, which, according to their executive statements, has already optimized expenditures and bolstered operational metrics.
Since coming under Valofe’s stewardship, Soulworker’s development has maintained a consistent schedule of content updates, much to the community’s relief. The developers have proactively engaged with players through collaborations with various external brands and hosted physical meetups to discuss the game’s ongoing trajectory. While the current emphasis remains on preserving the original PC version’s functionality, acquiring full IP rights dramatically broadens potential avenues for growth. Valofe plans new mobile projects in the Soulworker universe to expand its global market.
The latest content drop for Soulworker presented players with the concluding segment of episode 2.5, featuring the formidable ‘Rebellious Star’ raid. This high-stakes activity, designed for a party of eight individuals, has garnered considerable positive feedback from the enthusiastic player community. Valofe representatives underscored that with full franchise command, they are now equipped to accelerate new content integration and guarantee robust, long-term support for the game.
For those interested in the title’s specifics: SoulWorker is categorized as an Anime Action MMORPG, offering an immersive role-playing experience. It is a free-to-play title available on PC, renowned for its multiplayer capabilities. The game was initially released on May 13, 2021.
