Though the SDK was recently released, games will only be available to purchase once the App Store, featuring third party applications that can be downloaded to users' device via WiFi or EDGE, launches in June 2008.
"The iPhone gaming environment opens a new era in mobile gaming and is exactly what we've been waiting for", said Michel Guillemot, President of Gameloft. "The Apple iPhone has changed the way consumers perceive and interact with their mobile phones, and the release of the SDK is a tremendous opportunity for Gameloft to apply its creative and innovative approach to mobile gaming," said Guillemot. "Due to our investment in creating one of the most advanced and creative development studios to date, we are ideally positioned today to seamlessly integrate new opportunities and quickly produce games that are as evolutionary as they are enjoyable."
Gameloft has already worked with Apple developing mobile games that are uniquely adapted to the iPod. It reportedly sells over 200,000 games per day throughout 80 countries and creates games for mobile handsets equipped with Java, Brew or Symbian technology.
