Com2us Platform is teaming up with a Taiwan game publisher to speed the expansion of its game backend service Hive in the Greater China market.

Com2us Platform, a subsidiary of Com2uS Holdings, said on Tuesday it signed a strategic partnership with Taiwan publisher DiGiM. The two companies plan to further strengthen game service competitiveness in Greater China markets including Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau through the cooperation.

Under the agreement, DiGiM will give priority to reviewing the application of Com2us Platform's game backend as a service, Hive, to its upcoming PC and mobile game lineup. Hive is a platform that provides core infrastructure needed for game services, including authentication, payment and data analysis, through a single software development kit.

Earlier, Com2us Platform worked with Soft-World (MyCard), Taiwan's top payment solution operator, in 2024 to build a foundation for local payment integration. With the new partnership also securing a local publishing network, Hive customers are expected to have a broader route for entering the Greater China market.

DiGiM, the partner company, is a game-focused publisher founded in Taiwan in 2017. Based on its understanding of the local market, it has achieved long-term success by tailoring well-known South Korean intellectual property titles such as Gwichon, Cabal, Silkroad and Eos to local tastes, and is regarded as a competitive publisher in Taiwan's game industry.

Hive currently provides a unified management page for essential game service functions including authentication, payment, web shop, security and analytics, improving efficiency. More than 90 partners and around 250 games worldwide have adopted Hive, and cumulative users total 900 million.

Com2us Platform CEO Seok-won Choi (최석원) said, "DiGiM is a partner with deep understanding of Taiwan's local market and proven publishing capabilities." He added, "I hope this cooperation will expand opportunities for South Korean game companies to enter the Greater China market, and become a new point of contact for local users to experience Hive's stable services."
