Overview

Scopely is an American mobile games company founded in 2011 that develops and publishes free-to-play titles built around long-term live operations rather than one-off releases. Its portfolio includes Monopoly Go, Stumble Guys, Star Trek Fleet Command, Marvel Strike Force and the Pokemon Go family of games acquired from Niantic, several of which rank among the highest grossing mobile titles in the world. The company is headquartered in Culver City, was acquired by the Saudi Arabian group Savvy Games in 2023, and operates studios across North America, Europe and Asia.
