Gaikai Inc., a cloud-based video game streaming service for games and applications headquartered in Aliso Viejo, California, raised more than $10m in its Series B financing round.
Investors include TriplePoint Capital, Rustic Canyon Partners, Benchmark Capital and an un-named partner.
Gaikai offers video game publishers and retailers an innovative cloud-computing solution that enables the acquisition of new video game players at a dramatically reduced cost. Its underlying technology was created by co-founders Andrew Gault and Rui Pereira who met while working together in The Netherlands.
The capital infusion will enable the company to launch in the U.S., as well as support more devices.
Gaikai will be announcing other strategic industry investments and partnerships.
