IT House reported on March 18th that LinkedIn, a social platform for the workplace, was developing a built-in game function. Nima Owji, an application researcher, posted a series of screenshots on X, showing some games being developed by LinkedIn, and said that employees’ scores would affect their company’s ranking in the game.
LinkedIn has confirmed this plan to foreign media TechCrunch. The official said: "We are adding puzzle-based games to the LinkedIn experience to release some fun, deepen relationships and hopefully stimulate opportunities for dialogue."
The report also said that the games currently being developed by LinkedIn include Queens, Inference and Crossclimb. It is not clear when the game function will go online and whether it will be available to free users.
LinkedIn revealed that its advanced subscription plan in 2023 generated revenue of $1.7 billion (Note of IT House: currently about RMB 12.24 billion). These plans start at $39.99 per month (currently about RMB 288).
