"We are extremely pleased to see this day coming true," said Eyal Netanel, CEO of Majorem Ltd. "We look forward to continue making Ballerium an exciting and enjoyable game."
"We are very excited to have Majorem as our development partner in bringing Ballerium to gamers in Taiwan and elsewhere," said Bob Wu, CEO of Sanctum Entertainment.
