About

Maximum Games acted as the publisher for several notable releases in 2016, including Big Buck Hunter Arcade and Monster Jam: Crush It. The company has been instrumental in bringing niche simulation and arcade franchises, such as Farming Simulator 2017, to console audiences. Through its distribution network, it has supported franchises like Big Buck Hunter Arcade, ATV Drift & Tricks, and MudRunner.
To maximize the reach of these specialized franchises, the company focused heavily on physical retail distribution and unique packaging. A prime example of this strategy was the Big Buck Hunter Arcade [Controller Bundle] (2016), which packaged the console port of the classic arcade shooter with a custom Bluetooth light gun, replicating the authentic cabinet experience for home players. This release, alongside the standard edition of Big Buck Hunter Arcade (2016), successfully bridged the gap between arcade halls and living rooms.
In the motorsports and simulation sectors, the company secured key North American publishing rights to elevate niche titles into mainstream retail successes. For Monster Jam: Crush It (2016), they delivered accessible, arcade-style monster truck gameplay across multiple console platforms. They applied a similar physical distribution model to Farming Simulator 2017 (2016), driving significant retail sales for the agricultural simulation series. This specialized distribution pipeline also extended to off-road racing and simulation titles, facilitating the physical console releases of ATV Drift & Tricks and MudRunner: American Wilds to reach dedicated enthusiast audiences who preferred physical media.
