Griffin Gaming Partners, one of the world’s largest venture capital firms focused exclusively on gaming, announced its lead investment in Amplitude Studios’ €12M Series A, the award-winning team behind the critically acclaimed ENDLESS universe.
Founded in 2011 and acquired by SEGA in 2016, Amplitude recently returned to independence, with its founding team recommitting to the studio’s original vision and its signature “Triple-I” approach: indie spirit, innovative design, and immersive storytelling — all delivered with AAA polish. The studio is now working to scale that vision and reach a broader global audience.
The funding will support the development of new titles, including the recently announced ENDLESS Legend 2 in close collaboration with publishing partner Hooded Horse— a long-awaited sequel already drawing praise from early hands-on previews.
“We built Amplitude as an indie studio driven by passion and community.
What’s exciting about regaining our independence through this partnership with Griffin is that it’s not about changing who we are; it’s about accelerating toward the future we’ve always envisioned.
A future where we can fully realize our creative vision and deliver the immersive experiences our players expect. We’re already deep in development on what’s next—and we can’t wait to share it.”
Romain de Waubert de Genlis, CEO of Amplitude Studios
The investment will also allow Amplitude to grow its team and double down on community collaboration through its Games2Gether platform — a cornerstone of the studio’s development philosophy.
“We’re excited to partner with Amplitude Studios on their next chapter – they’ve created rich strategy-based franchises and plan to continue leveraging their depth of knowledge in the genre alongside their loyal community to create engaging universes.
The team has a proven track record of excellence in releasing multiple titles that are both critically acclaimed and loved by their audiences.”
Frankie Zhu, Partner at Griffin Gaming Partners
This partnership adds to Griffin’s growing portfolio of companies building the next generation of genre-defining IP and player-first experiences.
