CULVER CITY, Calif., Aug. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail Games” or the “Company”), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, officially announced The Fame Game: Welcome to Hollywood, a new dating simulation title being developed and published under its subsidiary Interactive Films LLC.
Narrative-led games with relationship mechanics have shown strong user retention particularly among players seeking personalized, emotionally interactive gameplay. The Fame Game: Welcome to Hollywood follows a story told from a male perspective, designed to resonate with a wide audience through branching narrative paths and high likelihood of replays driven by multiple possible endings.
According to Newzoo’s 2024 Global Gamer Study, life and relationship simulation games have experienced a 40% year-over-year rise in player engagement, especially among the 18-34 demographic. Deloitte’s 2023 Digital Media Trends report further highlights the shifting emotional landscape of modern players: 50% of Gen Z and Millennials report stronger emotional connections to fictional characters than to real people, and nearly one in three say games help fulfill their need for meaningful connection.
The project benefits from streamlined mechanics that allow for cost-effective development and rapid iteration, while preserving the game’s emotional depth. Its accessible gameplay structure lowers the barrier to entry, making it approachable for gamers across experience levels – particularly for casual players or those new to narrative-focused games. This design philosophy supports a wider potential audience while minimizing production overhead.

CULVER CITY, Calif., July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail Games” or the “Company”), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, today provided an update on its recently announced stablecoin initiative, establishing Snail Coins LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to serve as the dedicated entity responsible for the issuance, management, and operations of its proprietary USD-backed stablecoin project and other broader digital asset management initiatives.
This move marks a milestone in the Company’s broader stablecoin initiative and broader digital asset management strategy, underscoring the Company’s plans to build a secure, scalable, and transparent digital asset ecosystem.
The stablecoin project is aimed at delivering a secure, regulated, and scalable solution that addresses current market gaps in digital payments and on-chain financial infrastructure. The recent signing of the GENIUS (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins) Act into law — which establishes a federal regulatory framework for USD-backed stablecoins — creates a more uniform regulatory structure for stablecoin and has added momentum to the Company’s exploration of a proprietary stablecoin initiative. The Company believes this new regulatory development will enhance market trust, attract institutional interest, and accelerate the broader adoption of compliant digital financial solutions.
“With the GENIUS Act signed into law, we believe the regulatory landscape is beginning to align with the pace of innovation in digital finance,” said Snail, Inc. co-CEO Hai Shi. “The timing of this development couldn’t be more aligned with our own efforts, as we now establish a dedicated subsidiary for our stablecoin and our broader digital asset management initiatives. We view the formation of Snail Coins LLC as more than a corporate structuring move – it’s the beginning of a strategic commitment to the integrity, success, and vision of the project.”

CULVER CITY, Calif., July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail Games” or the “Company”), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, announced its intention to explore pursuing a strategic digital asset initiative that includes the evaluation and feasibility for introduction of its own proprietary stablecoin. This initiative would be subject to a range of factors, including but not limited to, regulatory approvals, market conditions, technical feasibility, cybersecurity safeguards, financial controls, and internal governance. The Company believes that exploring stablecoin infrastructure may position it as an early mover within the digital entertainment industry. While no decisions have been made to integrate such technology into the Company’s corporate strategy, it continues to evaluate and explore opportunities as part of its broader innovation roadmap.
Recognizing the growing potential of crypto-based transactions in the digital entertainment and gaming industry, the Company is currently assessing the feasibility of developing and exploring its stablecoin with multiple external use cases, with no current timeline or commitment.
To support this initiative, Snail Games has retained Dr. George Cao, an external consultant. Dr. Cao earned his PhD degree in Computer Science from the University of Chicago and is the Founder and the Chief Executive Officer of AscendEX, a full-stack cryptocurrency financial platform that offers simple solutions for investing, trading, and earning to global users. In addition, the Company also retained seasoned legal advisors, including a nationally recognized law firm ranked by Chambers FinTech Legal USA as a leading firm serving cryptocurrency and blockchain clients.
“This stablecoin exploration is a natural evolution of our innovation-led strategy and will support a broader effort to evaluate how blockchain-based technologies could be aligned with the Company’s long-term goal to be at the forefront of digital transformation in the entertainment space,” said Snail, Inc. co-CEO Hai Shi. “To support this initiative, we’ve engaged a nationally recognized law firm and a seasoned strategic advisor to support and guide the successful exploration of this opportunity. We are evaluating potential future phase hiring needs for professionals with specialized experience in blockchain, stablecoins, and digital asset strategy. While our focus continues to remain on gaming across our ARK franchise, indie titles, and other up-and-coming genres, this investigation into the crypto space and evaluation of the feasibility of launching our own stablecoin would mark a key step in advancing our vision of driving innovation across digital entertainment. We’re excited to share continued updates as we reach meaningful milestones in our evaluation.”

CULVER CITY, Calif., July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail Games” or the “Company”), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, announced the launch of two new indie titles, Robots at Midnight and Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship, in the month of June. These releases mark a strategic expansion into distinct game and player demographics, showcasing Snail’s ongoing commitment to fostering creativity and innovation across its global portfolio.
Robots at Midnight, developed by Toronto based studio Finish Line Games, represents Snail Games’ strategic entry into a younger segment of the gaming market. Designed as an accessible, entry-level Souls-like game, it introduces the genre’s core mechanics in a more user-friendly format, lowering the barrier to entry for wider appeal. The game specifically targets the younger Gen Z and Gen Alpha players who are just beginning to engage with more complex gameplay experiences. Backed in part by Canada Media Fund, the game is led by studio co-founder Daniel Posner, whose background in education and interactive media bridges entertainment and learning. To celebrate the launch of Robots at Midnight and the 2.1M+ viewer minutes watched on Twitch, the team is hosting a community event where players can win DIY robot kits encouraging real world creativity inspired by in-game exploration. For Snail Games, its investment in games like Robots at Midnight is a long-term strategy to captivate the next generation of gamers and creators. With Gen Alpha projected to become the most digitally fluent and commercially influential generation to date, early engagement aims to build brand loyalty and position the Company to meet the future demands of an evolving global market.
Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship, developed by Zing Games, comes from a seasoned studio with a track record of success; its previous titles, including the predecessor Zombie Rollerz: Pinball Heroes, have collectively surpassed 10 million downloads. The latest installment in the Zombie Rollerz franchise blends fast-paced roguelite mechanics with tower defense survival strategy to deliver a highly replayable, content-rich experience. With a positive Steam rating at launch and a distinctive visual style that appeals to casual and core gamers alike, Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship demonstrates the strength of Zing Games’ IP and Snail’s ability to identify and scale high-performing indie titles.
Together, Robots at Midnight and Zombie Rollerz: The Last Ship exemplifies Snail Games’ strategic focus on widening its portfolio and deepening market penetration across multiple player segments. By introducing accessible gameplay in an underserved genre to engage Gen Alpha players and scaling emerging IPs, Snail is actively expanding its presence across diverse markets. These launches reflect a deliberate approach to portfolio diversification – one that balances genre innovation, long-term revenue opportunities, and global audience growth as Snail continues to evolve and embrace the next-generation of interactive entertainment.

CULVER CITY, Calif., June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc.

Solid Q1 results. The company reported Q1 revenue of $20.1 million and an adj. EBITDA loss of $3.3 million, both of which were better than estimates of $18.0 million and a loss of $4.5 million, respectively. Notably, revenue increased 42.5% over the prior year period and was driven by ARK Ultimate Mobile Edition, released in December 2024, and less deferred revenue associated with ARK: Survival Ascended sales.
Favorable outlook. The company has several releases slated for 2025, including a 10th-anniversary expansion pack for ARK: Survival Evolved, the release of Bellwright on Xbox in Q4, and new content for Ark: Ultimate Mobile Edition. Additionally, the company is releasing nine new titles in 2025, including Robots at Midnight, Honeycomb, and Echoes of Elysium, which could have breakout potential. We view the company’s efforts to drive user engagement and diversify revenue streams favorably

Management Commentary
Company co-Chief Executive Officer Tony Tian commented: “The first quarter saw sustained growth and strong engagement across our ARK franchise. Our ARK franchise had an increase in daily active users in the first quarter of 2025 of approximately 16%, up to 243,000 on the Steam and Epic platforms, when compared to the same period in 2024. We unveiled and released new maps and DLCs for ASE, ASA, and our mobile title, delivering fresh, immersive experiences that continue to expand the ARK universe and deepen player engagement. ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition maintained strong momentum since launch last quarter, a promising indicator of our ongoing efforts to broaden ARK’s audience. The mobile platform removes hardware barriers, opening the franchise to a new and growing player base. In February, we participated in GDC, where we unveiled a series of new trailers, announcements, and upcoming content for the ARK franchise and our broader game portfolio.”
“Next month marks a major milestone: the 10-year anniversary of ASE. This pivotal moment for Snail Games offers an opportunity to celebrate the franchise’s legacy and community. Beyond gaming, we also signed a MoU with Mega Matrix to co-develop at least 10 short dramas. In support of this initiative, we soft-launched Salty TV, our mobile short film platform, last quarter, which currently hosts 49 short dramas. We look forward to finalizing the agreement and working closely with the MPU team to deliver high-quality entertainment content. As we look to the remainder of 2025, our focus remains on expanding global reach, investing in scalable growth, commemorating ARK’s 10-year journey, and continuing to deliver innovative experiences that engage players and audiences across multiple platforms and genres.”
First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased 42.5% to $20.1 million compared to $14.1 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in total ARK sales of $2.7 million, an increase in ARK Mobile sales of $1.3 million that was driven by the release of ARK: Ultimate Mobile Edition, and the Company deferring $3.3 million less of its sales during the three months ended March 31, 2025 than it deferred in the same period last year, partially offset by a decrease in revenues related to other games of $1.6 million.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $(1.9) million compared to $(1.8) million in the same period last year; as a result of the aforementioned increase in net revenue offset by increases in the costs of revenues and operating expenses – a result of the Company’s increased headcount, research and development, and marketing expenses.
Bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased 13.6% to $22.2 million compared to $19.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to the releases of ARK: Survival Ascended DLC Astraeos in the first quarter of 2025, the releases of Bobs Tall Tales, and Bellwright in the latter quarters of 2024.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the three months ended March 31, 2025, was $(3.2) million compared to $(1.9) million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in benefit from income taxes of $1.0 million, a decrease in interest expense of $0.3 million, and an increase in net loss of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in interest income and interest income – related parties of $0.1 million.
As of March 31, 2025, unrestricted cash was $9.4 million compared to $7.3 million as of December 31, 2024.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the financial results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Snail believes Bookings and EBITDA, as non-GAAP measures, are useful in evaluating its operating performance. Bookings and EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures that are presented as supplemental disclosures and should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or revenue as indicators of operating performance, nor as alternatives to cash flow provided by operating activities as measures of liquidity, both as determined in accordance with GAAP. Snail supplementally presents Bookings and EBITDA because they are key operating measures used by management to assess financial performance. Bookings adjusts for the impact of deferrals and, Snail believes, provides a useful indicator of sales in a given period. EBITDA adjusts for items that Snail believes do not reflect the ongoing operating performance of its business, such as certain non-cash items, unusual or infrequent items or items that change from period to period without any material relevance to its operating performance. Management believes Bookings and EBITDA are useful to investors and analysts in highlighting trends in Snail’s operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which Snail operates and capital investments.
Bookings is defined as the net amount of products and services sold digitally or physically in the period. Bookings is equal to revenues, excluding the impact from deferrals. Below is a reconciliation of total net revenue to Bookings, the closest GAAP financial measure.

The Company will host a webcast at 4:30 PM ET today to discuss the first quarter 2025 financial results. Participants may access the live webcast and replay via the link here or on the Company’s investor relations website at https://investor.snail.com/.
