FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LOS ANGELES and LONDON - (February, 2006) - Global wireless entertainment publisher JAMDAT Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ: JMDT), under its license agreement with Codemasters, a leading video game developer and publisher, announced today the launch of LMA Manager 2006. The title will be available to mobile operators throughout Europe beginning February 2006.
LMA Manager 2006, the mobile version of the popular football management console title, gives mobile gamers the opportunity to act as a top manager. Revamped for the 2006 season, the game immerses consumers into the business of football management - managing teams and tracking players. In the 2006 edition, users can access new elements including a revised training feature which tracks players' training and helps managers control fatigue and injuries. Mobile gamers can also monitor players' fitness levels, manage success targets (which will be set by the board at the start of each season) and use the new finance screen to raise sponsorships and meet wage demands, as they manage their teams to victory.
"LMA Manager is an incredibly addictive and popular franchise in Europe," said Javier Ferreira, Director of Marketing Europe, JAMDAT Mobile Europe. "LMA Manager 2006 transforms Europeans' favorite football management game into an exciting made-for-mobile experience."
