Atari
Atari is a brand that is instantly recognized across the world
No other brand is so closely associated with the birth of the industry and the golden age of video games. And few can boast 50 years of cultural relevance that spans gaming and popular culture. The Atari “Fuji” is one of the most recognizable logos in the world, and games like Centipede, Asteroids, and Breakout are familiar favorites that appeal to consumers and developers.
In a market that rewards franchises and reboots, the Atari portfolio of over 200 titles is an invaluable asset. Because the IP is fully-owned, this allows Atari to have far greater control over production, publishing, and structuring attractive deal economics.
Approach
Reimagine Atari games for the next generation
By collaborating with Atari, Fig intends to provide the funding necessary for Atari to leverage its massive portfolio of video game IPs and partner with outstanding game developers to re-imagine these games for the next generation.
The Atari community is filled with passionate, die-hard fans — and Atari is excited to invite investors, fans, and the global gaming community to participate in the development of innovative and exciting new games that transform the experience and narrative of these timeless classics.

Game pool
Invest directly into a funding pool for video game projects
Fig is raising funds to deploy into prospective Atari games. Using the funds raised from this offering, as determined by the mutual agreement of Fig and Atari, Atari will partner with developers to create innovative new games based on Atari owned IP. The final size of the fund will determine the quantity and scope of games produced.
Upon the release of a game, Fig will collect a percentage of the gross receipts from game sales. From these collections, investors will be paid out dividends twice a year, if any dividends are distributable.
Fig pays out at least 85% of the applicable revenue it collects to shareholders of FGS-Atari. Gross receipts are proceeds from the sale of the games, minus customary deductions. See full terms in the "Terms" tab of this campaign.
