Axion Ventures Inc. announced that the company has commenced the build-out of a prototype of 'Rising Fire Mobile', the multi-platform mobile version of Axion's 'Rising Fire' PC video game that is currently available on Tencent Holdings Limited WeGame platform. Axion's video game, Rising Fire, is in the final stages of tuning with distribution partner, Tencent. Currently, Axion and Tencent are collaborating on a final content patch based on Tencent driven designs that include core gameplay enhancements, more adaptive AI, new weapons and related monetization aspects. The outcome of this patch is expected to generate the commercially viable build of Rising Fire that both Axion and Tencent have been tuning in 2019 and allow Tencent to commence a marketed launch on WeGame for the PC segment in China in early 2020. Separately, Axion has entered into late stage negotiations with another leading Asian publisher to co-develop a new mobile shooting game and management believes that the discussions will likely result in material upfront payments. Axion is expecting a final contract that would commit the publishing partner to cover a majority of the development costs in return for the global publishing license.
