Tokyo-based Cygames, a 100% subsidiary of Japanese web powerhouse Cyberagent, is on a roll. The company behind social game mega-hit Rage Of Bahamut announced it has registered its 10 millionth user on July 14.

Cygames, which is barely a year old (established in May 2011), currently employs 262 people.

The company operates nine games: Rage Of Bahamut’s English version has just racked up 2 million users and boasts around the same numbers of users for the Japanese original (both on Mobage).

Another big hit on Mobage is Idolmaster Cinderella Girls, a social idol-raising game co-devoloped with Namco Bandai.

Cybergames is just one of Cyberagent’s many social game/app subsidiaries:

  • R-Force Entertainment
  • Cygames
  • CyberX
  • Sumzap
  • GCREST
  • Applibot
  • Grenge (a joint venture with Mixi)
  • CA Beat
  • CyberAgent America
