Arkadium and Microsoft Studios sign multi-year publishing deal
Casual and social game developer Arkadium has inked a deal with Microsoft Studios to develop exclusive titles across multiple, unnamed platforms. The agreement is described as a "multi-year, multi-game partnership" between the two companies, though exactly how many years the deal will span is unclear. Given the pedigree of Arkadium, which has developed numerous casual titles for the web and mobile devices – word games, puzzle games and the like – it seems likely that it will create games for Xbox Live and Windows Phone. Presumably, the company will also continue to provide games for Microsoft's MSN web portal. Of course, given Microsoft's recent inclination to bring apps to iOS, we could be in for more surprises.
