Pixel Federation had a great year
Game developer Pixel Federation (Šimon Šicko) posted a 49% increase in turnover to €47.5m and 125% growth in EBITDA profit to €11m last year. “The pandemic has boosted the entire gaming industry and we were no exception,“ Šicko explains. The company managed to launch TrainStation 2, which, together with Diggy’s Adventure, is its key driver. It employs 230 and aims to set up a new office in Czechia or other neighboring country after the pandemic. At the end of 2018, Pixel underwent a managerial buyout, paying off Martin Blaškovič and Filip Fischer. The deal cost the company €15m, and a €10m loan was repaid last year. Now, Šicko and Marián Fridrich own 61% and Peter Lukeš 38%.
