Going along with their recently announced plans to launch more social titles, PopCap Games has revealed that they will be bringing Zuma to Facebook. Called Zuma Blitz, the title is expected to see a beta launch in three weeks.
We’ve received a ton of feedback regarding how players consume Bejeweled Blitz and other leading social games, and incorporated a number of those insights into this initial phase of Zuma Blitz, with more to come, said Jason Kapalka, co-founder and Chief Creative Officer at PopCap. Zuma is a very different game than Bejeweled, so the social adaptation has gone in different directions. Zuma is already a fast-paced arcade game, so the challenge was to make it feel approachable to players of all skill levels, even with just sixty seconds to play.
Once again PopCap is bringing a beloved game to the Facebook Platform and enhancing already successful game play with social features and functionality, said Gareth Davis, Facebook Platform Manager. Zuma Blitz will provide a fun and engaging way for our more than 400 million users to play with their friends on Facebook.
