Live Gamer To Power Civilization World's Microtransactions

Online monetization platform provider Live Gamer will power the microtransactions in 2K Games' upcoming Sid Meier's Civilization World, the companies jointly announced Thursday. The Live Gamer Elements platform will be integrated into the game, which includes a monetization engine that handles the game's e-wallet, virtual goods catalog management, item storefronts and more. "It’s an honor to be a part of 2K’s first endeavor into the social games world with their debut Facebook application, Civilization World," said Live Gamer president and co-founder Andrew Schneider. In addition to 2K, Live Gamer also has existing microtransaction partnerships with EA and THQ.
