EA’s first press release for Chillingo landed in our mailbox today. The company announced that Chillingo’s recently launched Cut The Rope game has passed 2 million downloads on the App Store.
The huge number of downloads is remarkable given the fact that the game has been online for just three weeks.
“Cut the Rope continues to break records with leading, international sales,” explains Chris Byatte, Co-General Manager of Chillingo. “Our new partnership with EA enables us to expand Om Nom’s prospects, visibility and reach to make more of an impact than ever before.”
“Chillingo has done a great job for us in publishing Cut the Rope on the Apple App Store,” said Efim Voinov, CTO of ZeptoLab. “Now with their acquisition by EA, we see more growth opportunities available for us in the future.”
