Russobit-M was a distributor of PC games in Russia and the CIS. It was crucial in PC game distribution in the Post-Soviet states. In 2003 it partnered with GFI to release game software and DVDs throughout Russia.[1]

Russobit-M was established in 1997 and soon became the major publisher and distributor in the Russian and CIS game markets.[2] The company employed more than two hundred gaming specialists and more than a hundred international partners at its peak. By the time the company stopped operating, it had sold one million CD/DVDs on the local market.[verification needed][citation needed]

In 2003, the company combined efforts with GFI. GFI acted as the publisher and developer, and Russobit-M functioned as a distributor. In May 2008 Russobit-M and GFI merged to establish the Bestway Group.[3]

In October 2008, Play Ten Interactive became incorporated into the group. The games of the company are selling on game platforms these days.[4]

The company released 900 projects, including 100 developed by Russian companies. Russobit-M ceased operations on 15 April 2013.[citation needed]
