Gamigo Philippines is shaping its place in Cebu’s gaming industry with a vision to grow from publishing into full-scale game development.

Originally established in the early 2000s as a magazine for PC and console gaming, Gamigo has since evolved into an international game publisher. The company entered the Philippines in May 2024, bringing its passion for gaming and innovation to Cebu’s growing digital and creative sector.

Building the Future of Gaming

Gamigo Philippines plans to expand its entertainment business and begin developing its own games. “We plan to expand the entertainment business, especially in video games. We’re going to start developing our own games once we get more manpower,” shared Studio Lead, June Lee Gabales.

As Gamigo Philippines prepares in laying the groundwork for future development, its Cebu team of around 20 members is focused on quality, creativity, and collaboration. According to Gabales, the most successful employees are those who are passionate about gaming and eager to learn. “Those who are really into gaming, who want to know how it works, are the more passionate ones,” he said.

Connecting with Talent Through Mynimo

Recruitment plays a key role in Gamigo’s growth, and Mynimo.com has been a valuable partner in that journey. HR and Office Coordinator Haradev Paredes shared that the platform has helped them reach qualified applicants for specific roles and improve the company’s visibility online. “I am so grateful to Mynimo.com. It has helped our company a lot—we were able to get specific role candidates, and it also brought a huge traffic audience to our company’s visibility,” she said.

Paredes mentioned that they first learned about Mynimo through online sources and recommendations from peers in similar industries. Since then, Gamigo has integrated Mynimo.com into both current and future hiring plans, with the intent to continue using it as a reliable recruitment partner.

She also noted that Mynimo stands out for its simplicity and ease of use. Having experienced the platform as both a job seeker and now an employer, Paredes said it’s helpful for both sides—making hiring and job searching efficient and straightforward.
