T-Mobile UK Launches Terraplay Platform
With mobile gaming communities becoming more and more important for developers to set-up shop outside of operators, it is no news that also operators like to create in-house communities. In the UK, T-Mobile has signed a deal with Terraplay to start hooking up their games platform to allow rental and pay-per-play games alongside their regular downloads. This also allows for in-game purchasing to happen and communities to be built.
Sven Hålling, CEO of Terraplay Systems, said: “We are actively solving a clear need from the industry for a federating partner who can provide not only an open and flexible community platform but also allow for cross-operator gaming and in-game billing. We welcome the addition of T-Mobile to our service.”
Neil Holroyd, UK Games Manager at T-Mobile UK, said: “By partnering with Terraplay we are able to introduce new innovative and flexible billing models providing an exciting community game zone around our games portfolio. We hope that many other operators will join as soon as possible to grow the gamer base even further.”
