I-play snaps up more 3D mobile games

They're courtesy of a deal with developer Polarbit

| Apr 18, 2007

Keen Pocket Gamer readers may remember a game called Wave Blazer, which we reviewed last October. It was a lush-looking powerboat racer, and we liked it a lot.

Well, its developer Polarbit has just signed a distribution deal with I-play, meaning that the game will get a new marketing push later this year.

I-play will also be releasing several of the developer's other 3D games, including 3D Armageddon Squadron, 3D Nitro GT, Doomination, and Little Soldiers. They'll be available for Symbian and Windows Mobile handsets here in Europe, as well as BREW phones in the countries where they're available.

Interestingly, it's the second such deal I-play has signed with a 3D developer, following its similar agreement with German firm Fishlabs last year. We're not sure yet if the new deal with Polarbit means I-play won't be releasing any more Fishlabs games, or if it'll maintain both relationships for a 3D splurge.
