A2M To Develop Online Social Gaming Title For GamersFirst

2008_10_07_a2m.jpgK2 Network has announced that its free-to-play online game publisher GamersFirst is to enter into a development partnership for an original game with Canadian independent game developer A2M.

GamersFirst and A2M are to work together on an unannounced social gaming title, to be available in late 2009.

GamersFirst currently publishes titles including Global MU Online, and A2M has worked on titles for publishers including Disney, Electronic Arts, Sony, Vivendi Universal, and Warner Bros., and is currently working on WET for Sierra Entertainment.

"This new partnership allows us to express our gameplay know-how in social online gaming," said Remi Racine, President and Executive Producer, A2M. "As an independent game developer, we have the freedom to create highly imaginary concepts and, working with our partners, put it in the hands of game fans. Our creativity, combined with our ability to answer the needs of expanding markets, will make the upcoming MMO projects key milestones."
