(Press Release)

 

WALL, NJ - September 29, 2005 - SNK PLAYMORE USA CORPORATION, the US publishing arm of the SNK PLAYMORE CORPORATION, announced a licensing agreement between SNK PLAYMORE CORPORATION and I-play, the mobile games company. The agreement will see releases of the sequels of two of SNK's top franchises: THE KING OF FIGHTERS(tm) and METAL SLUG(tm) to be published by I-Play in North, Central and South America, and Europe.

METAL SLUG Mobile(tm), based on three of the legendary METAL SLUG arcade games, will give way to the new title METAL SLUG Mobile Impact(tm). The sequel sees our hero Marco deep inside enemy territory, where he must find the Control Room and stop the enemy before they use the feared Super Rocket and destroy the world.

 

The King Of Fighters(tm) M2, sequel to the original The King of Fighters mobile title, offers all the thrills and frenzied speed of the arcade game. Featuring three exciting modes: - Story, Survival and Battle, the title brings a vast martial art fun to the mobile platform. Sub-games 

seamlessly combine with extreme martial arts action in a series of innovative special moves, allowing each character to perform a number of key moves in attack, defense and desperation mode.

 

"I-play makes it very easy for our fans to download and play our popular franchises on their mobile phones," said Ben Herman, president of SNK PLAYMORE USA CORPORATION. "The METAL SLUG and KING OF FIGHTERS mobile games will capture the excitement of these arcade originals."
