Cartoon Network has partnered with the Korean game developer SundayToz for a mobile puzzle game around the hit animated series, We Bare Bears.
The game is expected to launch globally in early 2018.
The free match three-style and city-builder game will feature storytelling and video from the series, as well as competitive features such as leader-boards where friends can challenge one another.
“It’s exciting to partner with SundayToz on a new global mobile game for We Bare bears,” said Chris Waldron, vice president of Cartoon Network Digital Products and Games.
“They connect with the fun, light-hearted tone of the series; and we know they’ll deliver a game our fans won’t want to put down.”
SundayToz is well-known for its collection of puzzle games, including the Anipang series launched in 2013. As of January 2017, the company’s products have been downloaded more than 82 million times.
Co-founder and CEO, Kevin Jungwoong Lee, added: “SundayToz has been pursuing the creation of a new gaming culture through the development of games like these. This much-anticipated release combines SundayToz and Cartoon Network’s collaborative efforts, and together we will launch an exceptional product.”
