Italian video game developer
RORTOS is an Italian video game developer and publisher that specializes in creating flight, naval,[1] and military simulation games. Founded in Verona, Italy, in 2012, the company has established itself as a major player in the mobile simulation market, with its titles having been downloaded over 200 million times.[2] It was acquired in 2021 by Polish mobile game developer Ten Square Games.[3][4][5][6]
History
RORTOS was founded by Roberto Simonetto in 2012 and has focused on developing simulators for a variety of platforms. In 2018, the company merged with another Italian gaming studio, Reludo,[7] which was known for its casual and fast-paced mobile games. This merger combined RORTOS’s technical expertise and simulation focus with Reludo’s commercial and managerial experience, allowing the company to expand its reach and diversify its product lineup. While RORTOS is best known for its mobile games (iOS and Android), it has also expanded its publishing to other platforms, including Steam (PC), Xbox, and PlayStation. The company’s mission is to offer a wide range of simulation products, giving players the opportunity to experience civil, military, combat, and naval aviation.[3][4][5][6] In 2021, it became a subsidiary company of Wroclaw-headquartered Polish company Ten Square Games.[8]
Notable titles
RORTOS has developed a portfolio of successful simulation games, many of which have garnered a dedicated following. Some of its most popular titles include:[3][4][5][6]
* RFS – Real Flight Simulator: One of the company’s flagship titles, this game offers an in-depth and realistic flight simulation experience with a wide variety of aircraft, real-time flights, and a detailed flight planner.
* Airline Commander: This game puts players in the role of an airline commander, challenging them to manage an entire fleet of commercial airliners and handle various flight scenarios.
* Wings of Heroes: A more combat-oriented title, this game is a World War II-themed aerial combat simulator.
* Extreme Landings: A series of games that test players’ piloting skills in challenging and dangerous landing scenarios.
* F18 Carrier Landing: A game that focuses on the precision and skill required for landing a fighter jet on an aircraft carrier.
* Marina Militare It Navy Sim: A naval simulator developed in partnership with the Italian Navy. This title allows players to command and operate various naval vessels.[9] This official partnership with the Italian Armed Forces was followed in 2016 with the release of Frecce Tricolori Flight Simulator, an app designed for mobile devices and born from the partnership between Rortos, the Italian Air Force and Difesa Servizi S.p.A. The game allows users to climb into the cockpit and carry out manoeuvres of the Frecce Tricolori aerobatic demonstration team.[10]
Company and community
RORTOS was a privately-held company headquartered in Verona until 2021. Then it became a fully-owned subsidiary of the Polish company Ten Square Games which is listed on Warsaw Stock Exchange. The company maintains an active online presence and fosters a strong community around its games through social media channels like YouTube, Discord, and Facebook. This community engagement, along with a consistent focus on a niche but popular genre, has been a key factor in the company’s success.[3][4][5][6]
