It is an interesting measure undertaken by WeChat in the direction of making WeChat a “All in One Platform” as the company describes it. Earlier in China, WePop, a game based on WeChat became viral but its popularity plummeted soon after. The company has to keep a check on quality and quantity of WeChat games for this initiative to succeed.
