Former Electronic Arts Canada industry veterans have announced the formation of Jet Black Games, a video game development company that will focus on developing original and licensed intellectual properties for the Nintendo DS and Wii.
Roger Freddi, Co-founder & CEO of Jet Black said, “With the launch of our new studio we’ve brought together all the key elements to develop top games: proven experience and talent, the desire to push the creative cover, commitment to making games we ourselves want to play, and all the resources and support systems needed to perform.”
Brad Young, CEO, Flashman commented, “We are confident in the capabilities of Jet Black’s outstanding team, and know our strong global alliances and years of game experience will help grow their business. Our proven success in cultivating the right match of intellectual property, publisher, and developer will allow Jet Black to do what they do best – build great games, create inspiring ideas, and develop great technology.”
Jet Black may be focusing on games for Wii and DS, but currently they are also working on a yet to be announced Xbox Live Arcade game.
