India-based Reliance takes mobile games unit to North America and hints at acquisitions.
Headquartered in Chicago, Jump Games USA will develop and publish games for the local market and says it's 'aggressively' looking to acquire licenses.
Jump Games is an independent venture of Reliance Big Entertainment, which is part of the multi-national conglomerate Reliance ADA Group.
The company has exclusive global licenses to create and distribute games for Manchester United, Virgin Comics and Honest Entertainment (Fido Dido).
Jump Games opened its European offices back in January.
Rajesh Sawhney, president of Reliance Big Entertainment, said: "To ensure the future of our success, our partnerships and alliances with America's biggest firms will be critical. The idea is to expand the mobile entertainment umbrella for Jump in the mobile space, via strong and sustained growth – both organic as well as inorganic."
