While the company was making subscription-based mobile games as early as 2005, its mobile games business expanded with the 2012 acquisition of Noumena AKA Nuomina, developer of a "cross-platform mobile game engine" that allows games to be played on Android, iOS, and with HTML5. Some early mobile games were coded in Java.
The company doesn't confine itself to mobile games exclusively. It has a license to operate World of Tanks, other Wargaming properties, and Guild Wars 2 in China. It also operates a handful of self-developed titles. The company derives revenue from some of these massively multiplayer online games, such as World of Tanks, through the sale of virtual goods.
