Glu Mobile will continue to develop and publish SEGA titles in Europe through the new deal, that builds on a previous agreement which saw Glue develop SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Monkey Ball, Virtua Tennis and Chu Chu Rocket in EMEA.

The mobile game publisher will continue by developing Football Manager Quiz, based on the Football Manager Franchise that will be the first to be released under the new agreement followed by Total War and Wonderboy.

Glu Mobile is a leading publisher of mobile games including titles based on major brands from Atari, hasbro, Microsoft, PopCap Games, SEGA and Sony.

Alan Pritchard, UK managing director at SEGA Europe, said: "Glu has demonstrated a great ability to deliver quality games for mobile that meet the needs of both Sega and, more importantly, gamers on the go. With this in mind we are happy to be extending our agreement with Glu by working on a further four titles together."

Kristian Segerstr?le, managing director of EMEA at Glu Mobile, said: "The extension of our relationship with SEGA highlights Glu's strength in working with key partners,and maintaining the brand values entrusted to us. SEGA has some of the most recognisable and prevalent gaming brands in the world and we look forward to working with them to bring the titles consumers know and love to mobile phones throughout Europe."

Aside from SEGA's Football Manager Quiz, Glu Mobile will be offering another football management game, LMA Manager 2008, based on the Official League Managers Association game for PC after the recently announced agreement with Codemasters. Football Manager Quiz will become available this spring while the latter will come out in autumn this year.
