Games publisher picks out man in stripey jumper and turns him into a mobile puzzle game.
Capcom confirmed a multi-year exclusive deal with Classic Media to bring the evergreen kids' licence Where's Waldo? (Where's Wally? in the UK) to mobile devices in North America and Europe. The first title will be a brain-training puzzle game launching this May.
"Capcom is no stranger to celebrated IP, with our own stable of successful franchises and licensed properties, but Waldo is something special,” said Midori Yuasa, president of Capcom Interactive. "We're excited to be working on this treasured franchise and thrilled to be bringing Waldo to mobile."
Where's Waldo? was created by Martin Handford and first published in 1987. The books challenge readers to find the uniquely attired man - and his friends - in fantastically details settings. These books have sold over 46 million and are published in over 50 countries.
