Gameloft officially announces five new family games heading our way soon

Gameloft has officially announced that they will be bringing six additional family games to iOS and Android. These games will be geared towards all ages from small kids to adults alike. In fact we have reported on a couple of them recently such as the My Little Pony title that is in the works.

The decision to bring more family orientated games to mobile was due to the success of their previous all ages games such as Ice Age Village and Oregon Trail: American Settler. These games we so successful that Gameloft wants to bring more like them to Android and iOS. There are only five listed below since the sixth game is exclusive to iOS.

MY LITTLE PONY : Featuring everyone’s favorite characters such as PINKIE PIE and TWILIGHT SPARKLE from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic animated series, created by Hasbro Studios and currently airing on the The HUB TV Network in the US. Girls and fans of all ages will look forward to building their very own town of Ponyville, while enjoying a series of mini games that are sure to please.
Monster Life: With its original design, this game lets both the young and the young at heart interact with 3D papercraft monsters, build their habitats, take care of them, and train them to battle other monsters throughout various quests.
Cosmic Colony: The action unfolds on a mysterious planet where players must create and organize their colony and make it prosper. Surprising events and space missions await players of all ages as they become space pioneers.
Kingdoms & Lords: In this simulation and strategy game, players can build their own kingdom and form an army to hold off barbarian invaders. Players can battle each other to prove who has the better army in this compelling title.
UNO® & Friends: This new game will let the huge worldwide base of UNO® fans connect with one another on smartphones, tablets or Facebook. Players will enjoy having the ability to challenge up to 3 other players in real time, while interacting using the in-game chat modes as well. A game started on a smartphone or tablet can be finished on Facebook, and vice versa.

We have reported on pretty much every title in the list recently although one game is missing and that is Littlest Pet Shop which was announced when Gameloft and Hasbro made public their partnership for that game as well as My Little Pony. For the most part, all of these games will be suitable for all ages to play although your two year old might have a problem getting the finer details of Kingdoms & Lords.

Unfortunately we really don’t have exact release dates for any of these games, only that they will be coming out later this year. For now though you can check out the full press release down below should you want to read more on it. I’m sure the My Little Pony will be the biggest hit out of all of these games.
