We Co., the beleaguered parent of WeWork, has been quietly building an electronic-gaming business.

After branching into co-living with WeLive, fitness with Rise By We and education with WeGrow, the money-losing startup is seeking a Play By We trademark, according to an application published by the U.K.’s Intellectual Property Office last week. It has also hired a handful of staffers, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified because it’s private.
