The Krunker team has done an amazing job creating a world-class game, and we look forward to helping the team by putting FRVRs platform, team, and publishing machine behind it to take it to the next level. This is exactly the kind of partnership we built FRVR for.”

Krunker.io founder Sidney de Vries added: “We are super excited to join the FRVR family. They understand our vision for Krunker perfectly and we are on the same page about the endless potential ahead of us.”
