London – 7th August – Green Man Gaming is proud to announce the launch of its brand new games charity bundle platform, designed with full transparency for developers, publishers and consumers. Led by industry veteran Paul Herron, whose impressive career includes 11 years at Humble Bundle, Green Man Gaming is also officially expanding into the APAC region, signaling a bold new phase of strategic growth.
Green Man Gaming’s new charity bundles are designed to make game discovery easier for players while creating new incremental revenue opportunities for developers and publishers. Each charity bundle offers full transparency for customers, with visible stock indicators that show exactly what’s available – something rarely seen in the industry. Customers are guaranteed to receive their keys instantly, and regional pricing will make charity bundles accessible and fair for players around the world.
Each charity bundle will be available worldwide, with proceeds dedicated to supporting local causes driving meaningful impact in communities that matter most to our global audience. The first charity bundle is being prepared in support of SpecialEffect’s One Special Day, with specific titles to be announced soon.
Recognising the rapid growth of the Asia-Pacific games market, Green Man Gaming is also announcing its expansion into the region. Paul Herron will leverage his experience to help drive the charity bundle initiative as well as providing solutions for developers and publishers to bring their games to the West.
“It’s an honour to be joining the Green Man Gaming team and spearheading not only the Bundles launch but also the expansion into the APAC regions. Charity bundles not only offer amazing curated content for consumers, they offer the opportunity for many great games to break through the noise of thousands of new titles that are launched every year. I’m excited to showcase what we have been working on and how Green Man Gaming will provide value across the whole lifecycle of a game.” said Paul Herron, General Manager, Green Man Gaming
“I’m delighted to welcome Paul Herron to Green Man Gaming, who comes with outstanding knowledge, experience, professionalism and reputation in the games industry,” added Paul Sulyok, Founder and CEO of Green Man Gaming. “We have built these charity bundles to be a force of positivity in an industry which has seen difficult times of late. We feel the opportunity to support gaming for good, whilst giving publishers and developers the tools to secure incremental revenue from their products, is a win-win the games industry needs right now. We can’t wait to build this initiative collaboratively with our fantastic developer and publishing partners.”
Earlier this year Green Man Gaming also launched Green Man Gaming Distribution. Distribution Managed Service (DMS), which allows publishers and developers to activate their games across 180-plus vetted “Green-tailers” worldwide, with an audience of 100 million engaged gamers. Offering enhanced discoverability and a chance to see a 20-30% revenue increase over Steam-only sales, Green Man Gaming Distribution aims to ensure the long-term lifecycle of games.
