Gameloft to Develop Games for the
Android Mobiles
Gameloft, a leading developer and publisher of video games
on mobile phones and consoles, has announced plans to develop over 10
games for Android, an open-source mobile platform. Bubble Bash will be the
first title scheduled for launch in Q1 2009.
The first Android mobile
phone has just been introduced. It’s the T-Mobile G1, manufactured by HTC.
Android
is an open mobile platform that incorporates extensive multimedia features
and supports handsets that allow an enhanced gaming experience thanks to
optimized graphics, touch screen, and accelerometer.
Gameloft's development team has created a line-up for the platform, with
several of its flagship titles available at the launch of Android's paid
application offerings.
"The
momentum and excitement for the Android has been building for some time,"
said Michel Guillemot, president and CEO, Gameloft. "We plan to fully
support this platform since it provides another great outlet for an
enhanced gaming experience for consumers."
In
addition to Bubble Bash, Gameloft has several diverse offerings lined up
in 2009 for the Android platform. The company has been developing mass
market games for casual audiences and continues with its offerings for
Android.
