Gameloft Plans for Second Generation of Android Phones

Just yesterday, Gameloft talked about how much better the iPhone has done than Android. That's to be expected, of course, as Android is still quite new to the market. Although the mobile games publisher said it would be significantly reducing its investment in Android, today Gameloft actually issued a statement pledging its support. Make up your mind, Gameloft!

Specifically, Gameloft said today that it plans to launch high definition games on next generation Android phones like the Motorola Droid and the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10. “The arrival of this new generation of phones will allow the development of High Definition games that make the most of the technological capacity and the speed of execution offered by the new Android phones. Consumers will benefit from a top quality gaming experience,” commented Gonzague de Vallois, vice-president of Publishing at Gameloft.

As for the current generation Android phones, Gameloft hasn't abandoned those either; the company reminded everyone that Assassin’s Creed is about to be released on the platform, and will be available both on the Android Marketplace and Gameloft Internet sites.
