IN-FUSIO has reached an agreement with Microsoft to develop
and publish mobile applications based on the Halo franchise. This comes as little surprise, seeing as how
IN-FUSIO already owns the right to create mobile games for numerous Microsoft properties, including Midtown Madness
3, Zoo Tycoon 2, Age of Empires 2, Banjo-Kazooie, SabreWulf, and It's Mr.
Pants.
We can expect the first mobile Halo app to be available by year's end (in North America). The Halo franchise has proven to be quite a force, starting with the domination of Xbox software sales, then a series of well-received books, and now with a feature-film in the works—not to mention, all of that branded junk, er, merchandise. Add mobile gaming to the mix and—for better or for worse—there's no escaping this beast…
