Kerry Phelan, Head of Worldwide Consumer Products, DreamWorks Animation says, “We wanted to provide a game based on the movie that would extend the Kung Fu Panda experience in new, inventive ways on mobile phones. Kung Fu Panda from EA Mobile offers an engaging experience that captures the great action and humor of the film.”
Travis Boatman is the vice president of worldwide studios for EA Mobile. He commented, “We are huge DreamWorks Animation fans, and we jumped at the chance to create a mobile game based on one of their films. Kung Fu Panda is a natural fit for a game. The story’s engaging characters, inspirational message and fast action made it easy to create an irresistible mobile game experience.”
