After 6 months of testing, Zynga finally launches its critical mobile game New Words with Friends

After six months of limited geographic beta tests, Zynga is finally launching its New Words with Friends mobile game on a global basis.

The old Words with Friends has remained one of the most popular mobile games of all time, with 55 million matches being played at any given moment even though that version of the game is 5 years old. But this new version represents Zynga’s attempt to double down on well-crafted mobile games under the leadership of new chief executive Don Mattrick.
