PopCap Games launches international operations center

PopCap Games announced its expansion into overseas markets with the opening of PopCap Games International. Based in Dublin, Ireland, the new operations center will serve as a local hub for PopCap's European and Asian business activities as well as studio facilities for international games and new title development.

At the same time, PopCap announced that it would be a primary sponsor of next week's Casuality Europe conference, being held in Amsterdam February 7 ? 9, and will have a number of business development and game development executives in attendance at the show.

Newly-localized games for some European markets will be launched this quarter, and international versions of www.popcap.com are expected in the first half the year. Among the first games to be made available to overseas audiences are Bejeweled 2, Chuzzle, Insaniquarium and Zuma; primary European languages targeted for rollouts in the first half of 2006 include French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch and Swedish. Asian localizations into Chinese, Korean and Japanese will also be available this year.
