Popcapgames Nokia and PopCap games signed a multi-title agreement in which a number of mobile games will feature multiplayer support over Nokia’s SNAP network. The first title to launch is Chuzzle.

This news was announced by Nokia during the Game Developer Congress which is taking place as we speak. The Chuzzle multiplayer version will feature several connected features like community offerings, chats, leader boards and more. Chuzzle is expected to launch by the end of the year.

“SNAP Mobile is all about bringing fun multiplayer Java games to the masses,” said Paul Whitaker, Head of Business Development for SNAP Mobile, Nokia. “With a catalog of broadly appealing games, PopCap titles are a perfect addition to our growing portfolio.”

“Downloads of our mobile games continue to grow rapidly and we have learned that consumers are increasingly looking for on-the-go games that allow them to interact with one another,” said Andrew Stein, Director of Mobile Business Development, PopCap. “To help meet that growing demand, we’re happy to cooperate with a company like Nokia that shares our vision of bringing engaging and fun casual games to the mobile mass-market along with a proven track record of efficiently distributing and hosting connected mobile games.”
