Kepler Interactive announced today that it has completed its first full year of business and is starting 2023 with a series of new publishing partnerships and investments. According to Kepler, its revenue topped $50 million in 2022, during which time it launched two games from its founding studios: Scorn (from Ebb Software) and Sifu (from Sloclap).

In 2023, Kepler is partnering with new studios. Along with Gentlebros, developers of the CatQuest games, Kepler will support the series catalog and release future releases. With new studio Sandfall Interactive, Kepler has a worldwide publishing partnership and will publish its next unnamed single-player adventure game. It is also deepening its partnership with Chinese marketing company IOI Gamer.

Kepler also announced the launch of a white label publishing service for developers, which includes marketing and editorial support. Upcoming games with this support include Eternights by Studio Sai and the unnamed debut title from Hadoque, a studio led by Hotline Miami artist El Huervo.

Kepler CEO Alexis Garavaryan said in a statement, "We launched Kepler with the ambition to provide the best environment for exceptional teams to thrive. Last year's results validated this aspiration beyond our wildest expectations."
