Playasia is based in Hong Kong and caters to the Asia-Pacific region, but also offers most of the products to international buyers.
History
Play-Asia.com was established in 2002 in Hong Kong, with the launch of its website selling games and accessories for all major current game consoles and computer operating systems. In addition to video games, the site also offers electronic goods, such as products from the Tamagotchi series.
The company announced its rebrand to Playasia and new logo in September 2018.[2]
Funding of game development
