Com2us credits both Summoners War and casual sports title Ace Fishing for its record growth. In a statement, CFO Lee Yong Guk says that the company expects more growth in 2015 with the release of a variety of additional titles. He says that Com2us looks to secure its place as “a global leader in mobile games.”

The group is already starting 2015 on a good note with a large U.S.-focused branding campaign for Summoners War as well as its first entry into the Chinese Android market with the game’s release on top platforms Baidu and Qihoo 360.

Just this week, Com2us released 3D action role-playing game Soul Seeker, its newest title for the U.S. iOS and Android platforms.
