Glu Mobile Inc. has announced an expanded partnership with Activision Publishing, Inc. to bring five blockbuster Activision titles to the mobile platform. The upcoming titles will be published worldwide for carriers and application stores that support Android, Blackberry, BREW, J2ME and Windows Mobile.
“We are delighted to expand our relationship with Activision. Through our past relationship, we have already demonstrated Glu’s ability to bring superior quality mobile games to market that are true to the original console title,” said Jill Braff, senior vice president of global publishing, Glu. “We look forward to continuing our success with Activision as we roll out new mobile games based on some of the best-known franchises in the video game industry.”
“As a result of our successful partnership with Glu Mobile on the worldwide launch of Call of Duty®: World at War™, we know they are the right partner to help us bring quality and innovative game play to the mobile platform,” said Dave Anderson, Head of Business Development, Activision Publishing, Inc. “We are excited to work with them once again to bring several of our biggest holiday 2009 titles to mobile consumers around the world.”
Sounds good doesn’t it? Activision have brought some great titles to consoles in the past few years, and Glu are renowned for their work on Mobile – so I think it’s fair for us to have big expectations of this partnership – bring on the games!!

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
