The gaming industry has been seeing an upward trend since the early days of Arcade Gaming. PCs and consoles have brought the gaming ecosystem inside the household, while handheld devices have brought portability to the entertainment space. Furthermore, the rapid progress of technology has equipped a majority of the general population with powerful smartphones capable of running games and other apps at the tip of our fingers. In turn, this development has ushered in the age of mobile gaming, an industry that is projected to become bigger than ever.
MW Entertainment Group stands at the forefront of the mobile gaming industry as it plans to introduce a slate of four innovative mobile games poised to shake up the market. As per a Stern/NYU Case Study, the mobile gaming industry is projected to have over a 12% compound annual growth rate in 2026, in light of the global pandemic. Founder and CEO of MW Entertainment Group, Matthew Whiteman, hopes to accelerate this projection and capitalize on the ever-growing market by offering games as fun as they are innovative.
“Knuckle Mania” is the first title that MW Entertainment Group hopes to release. As an All-American brand, MW Entertainment Group is only right to create a baseball game that people will know and love. Hoping to bring America’s favorite pastime to mobile screens everywhere, Matthew Whiteman and his team have crafted a mobile game that eliminates the unnecessary complexities of its predecessors.
Matthew maintains that the most important aspects of a video game are fun and replayability. Unfortunately, most mobile baseball games these days have failed to reproduce this critical element, making the thrill of baseball infrequent and fleeting, a polar opposite of the sport that Americans hold dear to their hearts.
“Knuckle Mania” hopes to veer away from the immense cognitive load required in today’s mobile gaming market by offering a game that is actually fun to play. With instant gameplay and an easy-to-use interface, there is never a dull moment with “Knuckle Mania” and its “snack-sized gaming” aspect. Instantly playable and infinitely replayable, the MW Entertainment Group is hard at work in creating an unforgettable mobile gaming experience with its first-ever title.
“Knuckle Mania” is currently at the culmination of back-end app development and is kicking off its Beta Testing phase by November 2022. Matthew Whiteman hopes to bring his vision to life soon as he navigates MW Entertainment Group to even bigger success in the years to come. As an American patriot, Matthew has built his brand to embody the true American spirit, and a great way to reflect that is through their premier mobile baseball game.
Matthew Whiteman is a disabled combat veteran making his company a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). He was medically retired from active duty service in the US Army in November 2014. Prior to his foray into the world of mobile gaming, Matthew took his shot at being a screenwriter and wrote for episodic television and feature films while he was attending 18 months of film school in San Diego at Palomar College.
Matthew wrote an episodic TV series about professional baseball, one short film, and two feature films. His TV series “San Diego Glory” captured the attention of Unity Motion Pictures out of Vancouver, BC, but failed to reach a pre-production contract. In March 2020, he established MW Entertainment Group, focusing primarily on mobile video gaming entertainment.
“Knuckle Mania” will be the company’s dynamic entry into the world of mobile gaming and is created in partnership with Red Apple Technologies and Tatum Games LLC. As MW Entertainment Group ventures into hyper-casual mobile game design, Matthew still offers screenwriting services and a library of screenwriting works on top of their mobile games. “We wish to develop the highest quality, highly enjoyable mobile games and film/television screenwriting through continuous research and end-user development,” shared the firebrand entrepreneur.
