Gameloft Launches its First 3D FPS on Facebook - N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance: Elite

PARIS, April 20, 2011 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gameloft, a leading global publisher of digital and social games, released one of its flagship franchises in an original Facebook version titled N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance: Elite. This game is the first established FPS franchise to be developed specifically for this social network.

"For over 10 years, Gameloft has established itself as the leading developer on all mass-market platforms for downloadable video games," said Michel Guillemot, President of Gameloft. "With this in mind, we've expanded our reach to include games for social networks. This also illustrates our resolve to be closer to our fans on all platforms of their choosing."

Immersive games on social networks offer players a gaming experience that simulates that of a traditional PC game with identical controls, but with greater accessibility and more complete community support.

Players can create friend lists and share their progress and rewards. The monetization system also offers players freedom as they can play the game for free or choose to upgrade their access to abilities and battlefields by purchasing various items such as armor, weapons or accessories like the jetpack and radar.

After Green Farm, N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance: Elite is the latest Gameloft title on Facebook. Thanks to its development and publishing capabilities, Gameloft plans to launch an entire lineup of titles covering all genres for social networks this year.
