Exciting new publisher SoGames bursts forth onto the wireless gaming scene

Manchester UK, June 2005 - This month sees the launch of new and exciting wireless games publisher SoGames. Headquartered in Manchester this pioneering new force is set to take the industry by storm.

The primary aim of SoGames is to provide accessible gaming to as many people as possible, with the ability to play great games at any time and in any place. This is to be achieved by focusing on a wide spectrum of games based upon original IPs, retro-game licenses and high profile movie and console games. The goal is to make wireless gaming as available and as stimulating as possible.

SoGames gaming philosophy is based around its founders experience and involvement within wireless gaming as they have been a part of the industry since 1999 and have been prominent in all areas of licensing, developing and publishing. Such involvement has given them a solid base from which to launch SoGames. With many strong ties to the leading names in each of these fields SoGames is in a perfect position to reap the benefits of the many years experience accrued from its founders.

SoGames has already established contracts with major network operators and off-network distribution partners, this combined with its close links and strong ties to key developers is enabling SoGames to take full advantage of its centralized position within the industry. SoGames will also be working closely with other publishers on a co-publishing and co-distribution basis allowing its games to reach a ubiquitous status globally.

SoGames' first releases will include the critically acclaimed puzzler Fruit Fall and the wireless conversion of the Blitz Games/Hasbro hit title, Glover. Both games are expected to be released on J2ME compatible handsets this summer.

SoGames is also expected to imminently announce several key acquisitions and appointments in the mobile games space.

The SoGames brand is set to become synonymous with its tag line, 'So Go Play' which also makes up the address of its consumer website www.sogoplay.com. SoGames is hoping to revolutionize the wireless industry and make compelling gaming for all....So Go Play!
