Gameloft has announced to launch over 15 mobile games along 2008 for Apple’s iPhone platform. Also Gameloft will utilize the App Store which comes with firmware 2.0.
Utilizing the SDK package, Gameloft development teams have started to create a line-up for 2008. As expected, iPhone proves to be a revolutionary gaming device, thanks in part to a 3.5-inch widescreen, the touch screen feature, a strong 3D processor and other exciting features such as the accelerometer.
“The iPhone gaming environment opens a new era in mobile gaming and is exactly what we’ve been waiting for” said Michel Guillemot, President of Gameloft. “The Apple iPhone has changed the way consumers perceive and interact with their mobile phones, and the release of the SDK is a tremendous opportunity for Gameloft to apply its creative and innovative approach to mobile gaming,” said Guillemot. “Due to our investment in creating one of the most advanced and creative development studios to date, we are ideally positioned today to seamlessly integrate new opportunities and quickly produce games that are as evolutionary as they are enjoyable.”
Gameloft has developed mobile games before for Apple’s iPod range. The company didn’t release information about the exact titles that will be launched.
