When made available for purchase in Europe later this month, Galaxy S4, the new Android-based flagship device from Samsung, will sport a variety of free content from game publisher EA, in the form of the Need for Speed Most Wanted title.

Users will find it available for download through Samsung Games, and will also enjoy in-game Samsung branding when playing it, the company announced.

However, the mobile phone maker also announced that only the first 100,000 GALAXY S4 customers in Europe would receive free access to the game via the Samsung Hub.

“Samsung is committed to delivering the best user experience possible and rich content sits at the heart of our vision,” Lee Epting, vice president of Media Solution Center Europe for Samsung Electronics Europe, said.

“We are delighted to have exclusive branded Samsung content in a triple A game from one of the world’s foremost video game publishers. We have also secured further partnerships that deliver on our promise to open up the world of possibilities to our customers.”

Additionally, Samsung confirmed partnerships with other content creators for the launch of GALAXY S4 in Europe, starting with April 27. Apparently, Galaxy Note II users will also be able to take advantage of the offer.

Gameloft and Glu are among these partners that will also deliver games for the device, but others will also join the party, offering access to other content, Samsung unveiled.

As PhoneArena notes, users will also enjoy apps such as Michelin Traffic, with real-time traffic information in 11 European countries, Michelin Restaurants to find places in Germany and France, and Michelin Travel, set to arrive in summer with recommendations for around 30,000 attractions in Europe.

Nighty Night, an interactive book app for children, will also be included in the offering, along with Little Fox Music Box, which will be launched in English and German, exclusive from Samsung Hub, also aimed at children.

Furthermore, Random House Mondadori will provide GALAXY S4 buyers with access to over 3,400 titles to enjoy, in addition to the existing range of Spanish-language books.
