A Nokia-sponsored blog has revealed that the next-gen N-Gage platform is set to launch this autumn, with two major publishers already committed to releasing a range of new titles.
"We expect EA Mobile and Gameloft to bring a number of top-selling, award winning titles to our platform between our launch in September and the end of 2007," a statement on the blog reads.
"They aren?t the only ones, as throughout the year we will continue to make exciting announcements of other leading publishers adding their titles to our games catalogue."
The news comes just days after reports emerged that Nokia has begun showcasing its new N-Gage technology at a secret meeting in Santa Monica. The technology will be used in a series of phones rather than a single dedicated handset.
According to Nokia's blog, the "biggest franchises and hottest mobile games" will be available to N-Gage users "by early 2008".
