Gameplan joins Remote Control Productions to expand development services
Founded in São Paulo in 2014, Gameplan is now headquartered in Fortaleza, Ceará. The developer focuses on co-development, engineering, and outstaffing, and has worked with international clients and publishers including Xbox, Bandai Namco, NetEase Games, and InnoGames.
As part of RCP, Gameplan plans to add full SKU development and porting to its service offering. It will also provide outstaffing solutions and technical support to other studios in the RCP network. For studios evaluating external development partners, these services can help provide specialist capacity or support work across different stages of a project. The appropriate scope depends on each studio’s production needs and the agreement between the teams.
What the partnership means for RCP studios
RCP said the addition reflects its aim to build a varied ecosystem of creative studios and service providers. The group says this structure is intended to support scalable delivery while allowing individual studios to retain control of their own companies.
Co-development typically involves an external team contributing to a game alongside its primary developer. Engineering support can cover technical work, while outstaffing allows a studio to bring in additional personnel for specific needs. Porting refers to adapting a game for another platform; the exact requirements vary according to the platforms and project.
Gameplan CEO André Faure described joining RCP as a significant milestone for the company. He linked the move to Gameplan’s more than a decade of experience providing development services and building industry partnerships. Faure also said the relationship would extend the company’s reach and help it contribute to major projects, while highlighting talent in Brazil and Latin America.
