Floodgate Entertainment was a Boston-based video game developer, founded by Paul Neurath in 2000. Many of the company's employees are former Looking Glass Studios employees.

Floodgate co-developed Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide alongside BioWare, and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic alongside Arkane Studios. In 2006, they signed a deal with Sony BMG Music Entertainment to distribute their game Mo-Pets. Recently, the company has focused on casual mobile games. In 2014, Zynga closed Floodgate Entertainment.
