Eidos and Majesco team up for European and Australian distributions

 

Majesco Entertainment and Eidos Interactive have started a partnership to distribute Majesco titles across Europe and Australia. This partnership focuses on Nintendo DS and Wii titles such as Cake Mania, MechAssault: The Phantom War, Nancy Drew: The Deadly Secret of Old World Park, and The New York Times Crosswords. The deal also encompasses unannounced Nintendo Wii video games that Majesco is currently developing.

Ian Livingstone, the Product Acquisition Director of Eidos, spoke on this new partnership saying, “There is an obvious synergy between EidosÂ’ focus on the casual games market and MajescoÂ’s expertise in this field.” He added that, “This is just the start of an exciting relationship with Majesco and furthers our commitment to casual games.”

From the side of Majesco Entertainment International, Managing Director Jason Dutton, has also stated how this partnership is beneficial to both parties involved.

This partnership with Eidos provides us with a focus that our mass market games will really benefit from, and is a natural progression in our companyÂ’s evolution. ItÂ’s also a fantastic opportunity to work with some of the best professionals in the industry while benefiting from a proven international distribution network.

This is not a short-term deal that both companies entered. Eidos has already committed to distributing 8 video games this summer with 15 more to follow suit. If this partnership works out, then European and Australian gamers should be happy for the greater selection of games that will be made available to them.
