Astrocade says it has 10 million monthly users and is working on an iOS app

Astrocade says it has 10 million monthly users. CEO Amir Sadeghian cites rapid growth from 5 million four months earlier and confirms iOS plans.

The platform is described as a free online space for AI-generated games and interactive experiences. Kotaku compares Astrocade to Roblox because users can create and share playable experiences.

According to the same report, Astrocade is also working on an iOS app. The company is said to be investing heavily in marketing in the United States.

What happened

Kotaku reported that Astrocade says it has 10 million monthly users. In the article, CEO Amir Sadeghian is quoted saying the platform grew from about 5 million to 10 million monthly users in four months. That growth lines up with earlier reporting from Fortune, which wrote on May 5, 2026, that Astrocade had around 5 million monthly active users at the time. In that same Fortune report, the platform was said to be handling about 140 million gameplays per month and hosting more than 75,000 creator-made games.

Astrocade is presented in the reporting as a platform where users can use AI tools to make games and other interactive experiences. Other users can then play them, which Kotaku compares to Roblox’s model. In outside context, Astrocade is also described as an AI-assisted UGC casual games platform and as an AI-native platform where users can create games and interactive experiences through natural language. GamesBeat described the company as a platform for AI-assisted user-generated content, while another source referred to the experiences as “playables” rather than games.

The report also says Astrocade is working on an iOS app. GamesBeat wrote in a separate context that the company was preparing an iOS launch for its user-generated playable experiences. The company is also said to be running a major marketing push in the United States, while Sadeghian says the platform is already popular there even without a previous large U.S. campaign. The sources provided do not mention a specific release date for the iOS version.

The user numbers cited in the sources have not been independently verified. They are figures attributed to the company and its CEO. External context also notes that Astrocade previously raised $56 million in funding, underscoring the scale of the business.

Background

In the provided sources, Astrocade is described as an AI-driven social gaming platform and as a platform for AI-assisted user-generated content. In other search-result context, the company is also described as an AI-native platform where users can create games and interactive experiences through natural language. These descriptions are closely related, but each emphasizes a slightly different part of the product: social distribution, AI-assisted creation, or natural-language interfaces.

The external context also says Astrocade previously raised $56 million in funding and hosts more than 75,000 creator-made games. Fortune reported in May 2026 that the company had about 5 million monthly active users. That makes Kotaku’s reported 10 million monthly users a clear doubling over four months, although the measurement method is not clear in the provided sources.

GamesBeat described Astrocade as an AI-assisted UGC casual games platform and said the company was preparing for iOS. In the same context, it was also noted that Amir and Ali Sadeghian founded Astrocade together with Fei-Fei Li. Another source describes Astrocade as an AI-powered social gaming platform that lets users create, iterate, remix, and share with friends and a global community. Together, these descriptions reinforce the picture of a platform positioned at the intersection of AI creation, social distribution, and user-generated content.

The available sources do not confirm an iOS launch date or provide an independent audit of the user numbers. They also do not specify what share of the user base is in the United States. What is clear is that Astrocade is being presented across multiple publications as a fast-growing platform with a large catalog of user-made experiences and a strong focus on further distribution through mobile apps.
