Our take
For a number of years NaturalMotion was a middleware business, building the software that helped animate games such as Grand Theft Auto and Lord of the Rings
Their focus turned to building mobile and social games in 2012. The quality of these games was high, with Apple choosing to demo some of its flagship games when it launched iPhone 5
The cost of launching a game on mobile (iOS and Android) has increased in recent years. Phones can now operate very complex games, and so gamers have higher expectations
They have recently won a multi-year licensing agreement with Disney to develop new Star Wars games
