The Weinstein Company (TWC) announced on Friday 25 March the launch of TWC Games, which will use TWC and Dimension Films’ intellectual properties in order to create video game titles for a variety of platforms. TWC will be partnering with Beefy Media to secure releases for mobile and social platforms as well as consoles.
TWC’s Bob Weinstein commented in a press release, saying, “The video game marketplace is changing at such a rapid rate. With all of the digital platforms, there are so many opportunities to broaden our audience with compelling, high quality, cost-efficient, video game entertainment”. There has been no official announcement about titles that gamers can expect from the newly-formed game company as yet but “...we have a bunch of products in development”, according to the Beefy Media press release.
Beefy Media markets itself as being able to assist prospective developers in getting a game idea successfully pitched to gaming industry publishers, in addition to helping publishers locate staff and development partners.
