The resurrected publisher signs a deal to integrate adverts into six of its free-to-play MMOs.
Having launched 'BOTS!!' during summer 2006, Acclaim Games has today confirmed that it's signed a deal with IGA Worldwide to provide in-game adverts to several of their subscription-free MMOs, including '9Dragons', '2Moons', 'BOTS!!', 'DANCE!', and two other unannounced titles.
"This agreement expands the growth of our advertising network into social gaming, delivering a mass market to advertisers wanting to access the powerful engagement and proven effectiveness of in-game advertising," said Justin Townsend, CEO of IGA Worldwide. "This is the first of a string of announcements in this exciting new space, with well over 20 titles signed and due for launch over the coming quarter, bringing our total available reach in line with that of a TV network." said Townsend.
"Acclaim Games' titles already deliver millions of impressions a day and with our growing list of titles we expect to break the ten million daily impressions within months" said Howard Marks CEO of Acclaim Games. "Acclaim offers its sophisticated multiplayer game content online for free and charges for optional in-game virtual items, and we are pleased to join IGA Worldwide's network that enables us to continue to offer our games free to players" added Marks.
Acclaim's strategy is to provide free-to-download, subscription-free MMOs, with income coming from micro-transactions, so today's announcement means that there'll be a further boost to the company's coffers in the coming months.
