Publishing giant retains exclusive mobile distribution rights for PopCap's best-seller.
EA Mobile has extended its licensing agreement with PopCap for exclusive worldwide mobile publishing rights to Bejeweled and Bejeweled 2 until 2010.
PopCap originally developed Bejeweled for web and PC gameplay, but the title has since expanded to videogame consoles, mobile phones, PDAs, portable music players, in-flight entertainment systems, and other formats.
Barry Cottle, SVP and GM of EA Mobile, said: “PopCap’s Bejeweled has remained a consistent top seller on mobile phones for the past seven years. The game has millions of fans and a consistently successful track record, and EA Mobile remains committed to continuing to provide the best mobile experience for this favorite gem-swapping game.”
