In 2012, Kylotonn developed the Play All technology with Wizarbox and Darkworks.[2]
In 2014, the studio launched the KT Racing label.
In 2015, the company opened a facility in Lyon, Kylotonn Racing Games.[3]
In 2017, the company won the 2017 Ping Award for "Best Sports Game" for WRC 7.[4]
On 2 October 2018, French publisher Nacon (formerly Bigben Interactive) announced that it had acquired Kylotonn.[5][6] Kylotonn and Bigben had previously collaborated with each other since 2008.[citation needed]
