Nokia, one of the world leaders in mobile communications, and Electronic Arts, the well-known interactive entertainment software company, announced recently their agreement that will make EA become a major supplier of mobile games to the majority of Nokia mobile device owners through Nokia Content Discoverer.

The new solution enables mobile customers' easy access to downloadable content through a collection of shopping mall "stores" on their mobile device. At the beginning, customers will be able to download seven EA titles such as: Tetris, Tetris Mania, The Sims 2, Doom, FIFA 06, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 06 and FIFA Street 2. This will change, because starting in mid-2007, EA intends also to support the launch of the Nokia next generation mobile games platform with top EA titles that will be custom-designed for Nokia devices that operate the Symbian operating system.

Nokia intends to launch, in the first half of 2007, its next generation mobile gaming platform that will enable people with easy access to find, buy, play and share rich and immersive games on a wide range of Nokia smartphones. Likewise, EA intends to deliver its entire collection of popular EA SPORTS and EA branded mobile titles at the launch of this next generation mobile gaming initiative.
