Amazon Announces Upcoming Release of Mobile Games for iOS
March 10, 2015
Amazon has announced its plans to release four premium mobile games for Apple’s iOS devices. Until recently, the company’s gaming endeavors had been tailored around its own hardware devices such as the Fire TV and Fire tablets. Amazon has yet to announce an official release date, but has listed “Lost Within,” “Tales from Deep Space,” “Til Morning’s Light” and “To-Fu Fury” as games to be released as iOS versions. The games will be available for a premium cost of about $6.99.
According to The Verge, the games (with the exception of “To-Fu Fury”) were developed at Amazon Games Studios in collaboration with other notable game studios such as WayForward Technologies and Frontier Developments.
Two of the four games, “To-Fu Fury” and “Tales From Deep Space” launched last year for Amazon devices, while the other two titles are still in development.
The iOS platform is an opportunity for Amazon to not only reach a wider audience of mobile gamers, but also establish itself as a reputable maker of mobile experiences. The company may very well be on its way to doing so, especially with games like “Til Morning’s Light,” which has been cited as WayForward’s biggest project ever.
