“I’m thrilled to share that Mountaintop has raised $30M in additional funding from some of the best investors in the industry. This capital will help us deliver an even better experience for our players…
X3 Growth Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Abstract, vgames, BoxGroup, and Spark Capital participated in the round. We’re also honored to welcome some incredible new angel investors, including shroud, tarik, iiTzTimmy, Zedd, CohhCarnage, Sacriel, and Paul George. Thanks for joining us on this journey.
When we started Mountaintop in 2020, we set out with one simple goal: bring players together through unforgettable new challenges. That goal remains at the heart of what we do every day. Our commitment to being fully remote — forever — has helped us assemble an all-star team of shooter veterans committed to our player-first philosophy.”
Mountaintop Studios is gearing up to reveal the game later this year officially. Their yet-to-be-named project is a PvP tactical shooter currently in development for Windows PC.
