Jam City Seals Mobile Game Partnership with Disney Including Disney Emoji Blitz and New Game Based on Frozen Sequel

Blog

Today marks the culmination of an awesome year for Jam City as we announce a multi-year partnership with Disney which includes Jam City taking over Disney’s popular mobile game Disney Emoji Blitz and developing a new mobile game based on Disney Animation’s Frozen sequel. As part of the partnership, Jam City has the the right to develop additional mobile games based on iconic characters and stories from Pixar and Walt Disney Animation Studios. Please see the press release we issued this morning (here).

Since its launch in 2016, Disney Emoji Blitz has built a strong and enduring user base and consistently surpassed revenue and engagement expectations by combining a unique match-3 blitz game with a deep emoji collection mechanic. Members of Disney’s Glendale Games Studio will join Jam City and continue to operate and grow Disney Emoji Blitz as part of the Jam City team.

Jam City’s new partnership with Disney – the world’s largest and most influential entertainment and media company – is a HUGE strategic win for Jam City and we are so proud of our team for getting us to this point.

Disney has tremendous respect for Jam City and our position as the premier mobile entertainment company. They specifically sought us out because of our world-class-team, global reach, and stellar track record of developing successful mobile games based on iconic entertainment brands – most recently with the wildly successful Jam City game Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery.

We are looking forward to bringing the magic of Disney characters and stories to Jam City as we continue to build our global leadership in mobile entertainment.
