"We are seeing a huge increase in demand for attractively designed in-game advertising to engage hard-to reach-audiences and look forward to working closely with GTG for many years to come", says Knutsson.

"Strong demand for advertising opportunities within the gaming vertical shows no sign of abating, with in-game advertising set to see tremendous growth in the coming months and years, alongside increasing recognition that our In-Play™ and In-Menu™ formats are the ultimate in non-intrusive brand advertising within the burgeoning gaming industry."
