If you are a Verizon subscriber, expect more options for gaming on your device. Verizon Wireless has announced a subscription gaming service for Android devices that will provide unlimited access to a number of mobile games for $5.99 per month.
Games for the program, called GameTanium, will be provided by on-demand gaming provider Exent. Verizon has promised access to more than 100 smartphone games and more than 50 tablet games, like Doodle God, Fruit Ninja, and World of Goo.
The new service takes the guesswork out of finding the best games while offering consumers the convenience of a one-stop gaming destination at a great value. The easy-to-use interface lets customers explore and discover high-quality games picked by Exent’s editorial board. Enhanced editorial features such as parental ratings, rich game imagery and reviews have also been included for customers to provide a better over-view of the game before downloading. Plus, fast download speeds and no advertisements give customers uninterrupted game play.
“GameTanium provides our Android customers with unlimited access to more than 100 games at a great value,” said Kristi Crum, executive director of marketing, Verizon Wireless. “Working with Exent has enabled us to immerse customers into the mobile gaming frontier and ultimately bring high-quality gaming options powered by 4G LTE.”
“We are excited to bring the launch of the GameTanium smartphone and tablet service to Verizon Wireless’ customer base,” says Zvi Levgoren, founder and chief executive officer, Exent. “The speed and power of Verizon Wireless’ network allows for a rich mobile gaming experience for Verizon Wireless customers to enjoy.”
The GameTanium smartphone and tablet apps can be downloaded from Verizon Apps on more than 30 Android smartphones and two Android tablets, including DROID RAZ by Motorola, DROID INCREDIBLE 4G LTE by HTC and DROID XYBOARD 8.2 by Motorola.
Customers can try out the service with a free trial that will provide unlimited access for three days. After the three-day trial, the service is $5.99 per month and will appear on customers’ monthly bill.
Note that a Verizon Wireless data plan is required and usage may count towards a customer’s data allowance.
