JAMDAT, Infogrames Sign Wireless Game Deal

Under the terms of the exclusive three-year agreement, Infogrames and JAMDAT will develop and publish wireless versions of Scrabble, Yahtzee and Boggle. In addition, the companies will develop and publish Dungeons & Dragons adventure games for wireless platforms under the Wizards of the Coast brand in North America. Under the agreement, the games will be developed using JAMDAT's technology, and will be delivered to platforms used by carriers worldwide, including Qualcomm's BREW, Sun Microsystems' J2ME, and iAppli. Earlier this month JAMDAT announced an exclusive two-year agreement with Electronic Arts to co-publish the wireless adaptations of PGA Tour and FIFA World Cup 2002 in North America, Japan and Korea.
