Aeria Games, formerly known as Aeria Games and Entertainment, was an online game publisher. The corporate headquarters were located Santa Clara, California, USA; and later, in Berlin, Germany.
Aeria Games was a privately owned organization by Aeria Games & Entertainment Inc, later a subsidiary of ProSiebenSat.1 Media, and later of Gamigo, which operated an Internet gaming portal for massively multiplayer online games. It focused on online games in multiple formats, client games, browser games, and mobile games. It published games for North America, South America and Europe. It closed down in 2023.
History Aeria Games was founded in Santa Clara, California, as Aeria Games & Entertainment. Two years later they opened their first international office in Berlin, Germany, which later became the company's headquarters. On January 5, 2012, the company acquired ijji, and later that year merged with Gamepot.
In February 2014, all its worldwide PC games business including its subsidiary Aeria Games Europe GmbH were sold to ProSiebenSat.1 Media. In May 2016, Aeria Games merged with Gamigo and let go 100 of their formerly 260 employees in Berlin.
Its games were free-to-play and used a micropayment system to generate revenue (in-game item malls and advertising).
Portal Closure On December 20, 2022, Aeria Games announced the transfer of all its current games (Aura Kingdom, Grand Fantasia and Shaiya) to other publishers. The publishing company additionally released information that the Aeria Games portal would be closing down in February of 2023.
