A new partnership in casual games is born

Take 2 Interative Software is the latest publisher with its new label 2K play to announce a new partnership with Nickelodeon.

Indeed, casual games sounds more interesting than "hardcore games" in terms of return on investment. The first licensing agreement for the new label, 2K play, is based on Dora the Explorer and Go, Diego Go ! and will be released this fall.
