Sources close to Reuters claim that ByteDance&#8217;s intention is to completely exit the sector. Furthermore, games that were still in development will also be definitively canceled next December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only surviving entity from this withdrawal will be <strong>Ohayoo<\/strong>, a label dedicated to publishing casual titles and operating through <strong>Douyin<\/strong>, the Chinese version of TikTok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Certainly, ByteDance had made a strong bet on gaming. In October 2022, we learned about the company&#8217;s plans to dedicate a section within TikTok to games. We&#8217;ve also seen them acquire major companies like <strong>Shanghai Moonton Technology<\/strong>, the developer behind the popular mobile game <strong>Mobile Legends: Bang Bang<\/strong>. The studio was bought in 2021 for<strong> $4 billion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Dear SNAPPERS, <br>Some of our players have expressed their concerns regarding reported structural changes at Nuverse. <br>We wish to thank you for your concern and assure you that regardless of any changes at Nuverse, SNAP will continue to operate and flourish in the future!<\/p>&mdash; MARVEL SNAP (@MARVELSNAP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MARVELSNAP\/status\/1729083053816082550?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 27, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, <strong>Nuverse<\/strong> was a very important part of ByteDance.
