InnoGames GmbH today announced a significant change in its senior management: Chief Product Officer Christian Reshöft will be appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of InnoGames on October 1, 2025. Co-founder Hendrik Klindworth, who has managed the company’s operations for over 18 years, moves to the role of Chairman of the Board at InnoGames.

​At the same time, Klindworth will assume the role of Executive Chairman of the newly created MTG Midcore District. In this role, he will drive the strategic development of the midcore segment, strengthen collaboration between the studios in the District, and launch efficient growth initiatives.

Hendrik Klindworth comments: “After almost two decades at the helm, it is the right moment to hand over operational responsibility to Christian. He has played a decisive role in shaping InnoGames over many years and is the ideal person to lead the company into the future. I am particularly proud of recent successes such as Heroes of History, which was launched a year ago and has been growing strongly ever since. I am very much looking forward to driving our strategy forward at group level and combining the strengths of the midcore studios in the District.”

Co-founders Michael Zillmer (Chief Operating Officer) and Eike Klindworth (Creative Director) add: “Hendrik’s move to these strategic positions is a logical and well-deserved step. His comprehensive expertise, many years of experience, and unwavering passion for the gaming industry make him the ideal candidate. Christian, who has been working closely and trustingly with us for over a decade, is stepping up to take over the reins. His outstanding product vision and deep understanding of InnoGames guarantee continuity and fresh impetus. We stand fully behind him and will support him to the best of our ability as he leads us into the future.”

“Following in Hendrik’s footsteps is a task I approach with great respect, but also with enormous motivation,” adds Christian Reshöft, who has been with the company since 2013 and has served as CPO for over five years. “He has shaped InnoGames as an outstanding entrepreneur. I am delighted that he will now contribute his strategic vision as Chairman of the Board of InnoGames and Executive Chairman of MTG Midcore District. We will continue on our successful course by focusing on profitable, organic growth and further expanding our core competencies. A combination of continuity and fresh impetus will determine our future path.”

Hello there! Adrienn here. I have a deep passion for art and a profound connection to the natural world. My journey through life has been a colorful one, driven by my love for creativity, music, and the wonders of the great outdoors. As a dedicated student, I've already earned a degree in Classic Cantos, a testament to my appreciation for the timeless beauty of classical music. Beyond the classroom, my artistic spirit thrives through my love for painting and drawing. These creative outlets allow me to express my thoughts and emotions, transforming blank canvases into vibrant stories. My interests go far beyond music and art. Singing, playing the piano, and exploring new melodies are integral parts of my life, providing me with both solace and exhilaration. When I'm not immersed in the world of art and music, I find solace in nature's embrace. My heart is drawn to animals and the serene beauty of the natural world, fueling my desire to protect and preserve our precious environment.
