Epic Games has acquired Kamu, a Helsinki-based company whose offerings include game security, game telemetry and game management services. Epic already uses Kamu’s services for Fortnite, and CEO Tim Sweeney said working with Kamu has been “key to building a vibrant Fortnite multiplayer experience that is fair for all players.” The acquisition will allow Epic to establish a presence in Helsinki going forward, and Kamu will continue to support its customers.

Epic Games has made its stance on cheating pretty clear. Last year, the company sued two alleged Fortnite cheaters — one of whom was 14 years old — for copyright infringement. “Epic does not approve of ongoing cheating or copyright infringement by anyone of any age,” the company said at the time. “As previously stated, we take cheating seriously and will use all available options to ensure our games are fun, fair, and competitive for players.” Although the boy’s mother tried to have the case dismissed, Epic Games decided in April to move forward with the lawsuit.

“Today, making and publishing games is incredibly challenging and only half the battle,” Sweeney said in a statement. “Kamu’s live game management tools help developers successfully grow and sustain their games after release. At Epic, we succeed when developers succeed!” Kamu’s Easy Anti-Cheat service is currently used by more than 100 million PC gamers around the world and protects more than 80 games.

“Joining the Epic family is not only a childhood dream come true, but also a huge boost to our mission to help developers create great gaming experiences,” said Kamu CEO Simon Allaeys. “Fighting cheating in games was just the beginning; today, our products also help developers stay competitive by recognizing player needs as they arise.”
