Be a Character in The O.C.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, publisher Gameloft will announce its multiyear licence for the mobile games today. The company has been responsible for creating mobile games such as War of the Worlds and a game based on Peter Jackson's upcoming remake of King Kong.

Gameloft president Michel Guillemot has stated that the first game, scheduled for release next year, promises to allow players to take the role of one of the show's four main characters or to create a new one of their own to make it in the OC community.

Gameplay will be akin to The Sims, with players aiming to make their characters fit in the OC world, date the right people and move in the rights social circles.
