Grabbing a user base on Google+ helps in that goal. The less it's dependent on one platform the more independence it has and more options it has as a company. Like Zynga, Kabam presumably doesn't want to be beholden to any one gaming platform. It doesn't necessarily need all the soccer moms worldwide to play its games. That means Kabam only needs to draw its hard-core fan base to Google+. Despite a smaller user base, Kabam users also pay more in virtual goods per user than say Zynga users. Kabam focuses on games that are more intricate and complicated to play, and caters to a smaller audience of hardcore gamers, compared to say Zynga, which tends to go for the widest possible audience with its easy-to-play games. And it could give incentive for other gaming companies to launch on Google+.įinally, even though Google+ doesn't have Facebook's massive user base, Kabam may not necessarily need all 800 million users. If they do move to Google+ that could give incentive for Kabam to launch future games on Google+. But will Kabam's users, who have largely been on Facebook, move to Google+ for the Godfather game? That will be interesting to watch. The other factor is that Google+ takes only 5% on virtual goods transactions, compared to Facebook's 30%. But it stands to reason that Kabam would not risk its user numbers by going to Google+ -just to please Google-if it didn't believe it could draw users there. Neither company was talking about the specifics. So Google presumably is close enough to Kabam to either suggest, ask, or push for Kabam to give it an exclusive, which would in turn would draw more users to Google+. Prepare your forces against rival players that want your goods, your land, or your life.So why is Kabam launching on Google+, which has tens of millions of users, compared to Facebook's much bigger 800 million? The easiest explanation is that Kabam is backed by Google Ventures, Google's investment arm.
