Paradox shares 2022 plan following disappointing 2021 financial results
nme.comParadox Interactive has published its 2021 financial report revealing that its revenues have dropped by 19 per cent.Following the release of the year-end report, which also confirmed that its Q4 2021 revenues were also down 10 per cent, Paradox CEO Fredrik Wester described 2021 as a “challenging year” and laid out its plan to make this year more successful (thanks, GameWatcher).“2021 has been a challenging year for Paradox.

We have placed a special emphasis on increasing our content velocity and the quality of all content we release.“Organisationally, this has meant that we have clarified areas of responsibility and goals for all parts of the company in order to strengthen game development.”On the topic of games, Wester explained that for future in-house developed games, Paradox has made sure that decisions have been made to help identify problems earlier, increase quality, and “become more agile.”“For externally developed games, we have reworked how we, going forward, invest in projects that are outside our core segments and how we collaborate with third-party developers,” he continued.
