UK FIRM Digital Jesters says it has signed up the Crazy Frog icon for a bunch of video games.
The firm says it has exclusive "worldwide interactive entertainment" rights across all formats and will publish the first Crazy Frog computer and videogame this November on PC and PS2.
The big-knobbed Frog was responsible for a ring-tone which was the UK’s No 1 single for four weeks of this year. Subsequent singles are in the pipeline, we hear, with an album due this summer.
The first Crazy Frog video game will feature the cute green one and his chums thrown 'headfirst' into an arcade racing game.
Leo Zullo, marketing director and co-founder, Digital Jesters said this firm was "obviously proud" to have secured the deal. "We’re working with Wallaroo to develop our own intellectual property within the Crazy Frog universe, capitalising on the colossal success of the ubiquitous character. We’ve continually hinted that big things were just around the corner at Digital Jesters, and they don’t get much bigger than this.”
Crazy frog Racer will hit the shelves in Europe in November 2005, priced at £19.99 (€29.99). The rest of the world will follow in Q1 2006.
