Titled "Global Dreams, MENA Vision", the event marks the company's foray into the region and the prelaunch of the highly anticipated game, Strinova, in Q4 of 2024.

Speaking at the launch event, Jeff Lyndon, Co-founder and President of iDreamSky, delivered a keynote address, shedding light on the latest trends in the Middle Eastern gaming industry and unveiling iDreamSky's strategic plans for the region for the first time. "Saudi Arabia's youthful and dynamic atmosphere makes it the perfect place for us to begin our journey in the Middle East.

Strinova, iDreamSky's flagship product is the world's inaugural shooting game to introduce TPS (Third-Person Shooter) and string gameplay, offering an unparalleled gaming experience to players.

The gaming and esports industry is projected to contribute US$13 billion to the country's GDP and generate 39,000 jobs by 2030. This ambitious objective is bolstered by Saudi Arabia's substantially young user base, robust infrastructure, and considerable consumer spending power. Market analysis indicates that Saudi Arabia boasts approximately 21 million gamers, representing nearly 60% of its total population.

Following a successful public beta launch of the Chinese PC version in February this year, the game garnered notable acclaim. In April, testing commenced in Japan, South Korea, Europe, and the United States, with plans for a global rollout in Q4, encompassing PCs, mobile devices, and consoles.

As iDreamSky's maiden gaming product in the Middle East market, Strinova not only upholds the core gameplay and thrilling content of its Chinese counterpart but also delves into cultural adaptation and esports event localization. At the launch event, iDreamSky extended special invitations to the Chinese WBG and AG Hong Kong esports teams, along with the Saudi Twisted Minds team, to stage an exhilarating Strinova esports showcase. This not only highlighted the game's competitive allure but also fostered cross-cultural exchange and interaction among esports enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds. iDreamSky affirmed its commitment to delivering an exceptional gaming experience while striving to promote cultural exchange and understanding through gaming. The company intends to deepen its localization efforts and further enhance the Strinova gaming experience, positioning it as a pivotal conduit for bridging different cultures and propelling the advancement of regional esports industries, thus providing an unparalleled competitive arena for gaming enthusiasts.
