‘Family Guy’ mobile game coming in 2014 from TinyCo
The Simpsons:Tapped Out was a monumental success so its no surprise that 20th Century Fox is going to try and utilize more of their animated franchises as games. Enter a new of Family Guy mobile game coming next year from TinyCo!
In a recent exclusive on Polygon, it was noted that unlike the XBOX360/PS3 game from last year, this is no ordinary ‘slap a brand on a game and sell, sell, sell’, rather TinyCo is said to be working closely with FOX and Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door Productions to produce a quality game that fans will want to enjoy for many months to come. According to the interview:
Andrew Green of TinyCo told Polygon that theFamily Guy mobile game will feature elements of resource management, but that its focus is on character and story, with a “large meta-arc” that will play out many months after release through regular updates.
The game is free to play and will be available on Android and iOs next year, however I’m sure there will be a BUNCH of micro-transactions to help lighten your wallet! In the new mobile game, you will be tasked with travelling through Quahog on adventures and tasked with talking to various characters from the Family Guy animated series to take part in an original story made exclusively for the game.
No word on a release date for the Family Guy game as of yet, but TinyCo is saying next year for sure!
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
