Koukoi Games has partnered with FoxNext Games to make a mobile game based on the upcoming film Ferdinand, an animated movie about the bull from children’s tales that debuts December 15. The deal is a sign of the times in the $40 billion mobile game industry, where having a brand on a game helps it stand out in the crowd.
Oulu, Finland-based Koukoi Games previously developed Crashing Season, which won some kudos for its art style, and now it will work on a game based on the comedy adventure movie coming from Blue Sky Studios and director Carlos Saldanha, maker of Rio and Ice Age.
