Xbox 360 Games Coming From Mad Catz

Posted July 8, 2011 by M.H. Williams

Gaming accessory maker Mad Catz has decided to get into the business of publishing games.  The company has announced that it has signed a Publisher License Agreement with Microsoft.  With that agreement, Mad Catz is now able to publish titles for the Xbox 360.

“The execution of the Xbox 360 Publisher License Agreement marks an important milestone as we pursue our longer term goal of expanding our participation in developing, publishing and distributing games,” said Darren Richardson, CEO of Mad Catz.

The first game on Mad Catz’s slate will be War Wings: Hell Catz, a flight simulation title developed by TrickStar Games.  It’s entirely probable that Mad Catz will also release a special controller or flight stick for the game.
