GameStop announced today that they have acquired Jolt Online Gaming, a publisher of free-to-play browser games.

“Acquiring Jolt is significant building block in our digital business strategy. This is further evidence of our commitment to building a world-class digital business platform. Combining Jolt’s expertise as a successful publisher, developer and aggregator of browser based games with GameStop’s vast multi-channel resources will enable us to shape and grow new market opportunities within the video game entertainment industry. Going forward, our vision for Jolt is that it will continue its focus on working with our game publisher partners to create online games for game titles and brands that aren't currently being exploited by the publishers themselves and then leveraging our global retail footprint to offer those games to GameStop’s customers," said Chris Petrovic, general manager of GameStop.

Legends of Zork, Utopia Kingdoms, and Trukz are a few of the titles published by Jolt, as well as the upcoming Playboy Manager.
