Glu has announced that it will be bringing more Activision titles to the decks. Amongst them is the popular Guitar Hero brand that was initially brought to mobile by HandsOn.
Next to the Guitar Hero game, Glu will also be publishing Crash Mutant Island, Blur and Tony Hawk Ride. Tony Hawk is another Activision brand that was introduced on mobile by HandsOn.
All titles will be launched on Android, Brew, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile and J2me. This means that Activision will probably publish these games on the iPhone themselves.
”We’re delighted to bring four more innovative and accessible Activision titles to the mobile platform,” said Jill Braff, senior vice president, global publishing, Glu Mobile. “Past titles within Activision’s leading portfolio of franchises have been a tremendous success for us and we look forward to bringing these much anticipated titles to the mobile market.”
“Activision titles have proven to be very successful on the mobile platform,” said Dave Anderson, head of business development at Activision Publishing, Inc. “Glu has demonstrated superior studio capabilities in addition to strong deployment and carrier relationships worldwide, and we look forward to continuing to work with their team to bring titles like these to mobile consumers worldwide.”
