After months and months of anticipation, Blizzard Entertainment's take on a roguelike experience within their massively popular collectible card game, Hearthstone, made its' debut in a live stream event on Tuesday in front of tens of thousands of eyes. Once the reveal ended, you'd be hard pressed to find a single person outside of the game's development team who understood what they had just watched.
The past few years have been busier than ever for Andrey "Reynad" Yanyuk. As his esports' organization, Tempo Storm, has continued to expand across the industry as new titles have popped up, it has made numerous investments in other forms of digital entertainment. Streamers, web shows, and even their own game: Tempo Storm explores everything the consumer of today is interested in. Last week Tempo Storm announced their latest milestone. The Bazaar, a digital, multiplayer deckbuilding game fully developed by Tempo Storm, received a $3.3 million investment to boost its production. Reynad sat down with Inven Global's Tom Matthiesen to talk about the investment, what it means for The Bazaar, and how Tempo Storm is paving the way for other organizations in the video game entertainment industry.
