National Geographic, publisher of the iconic magazine of the same name, announced a new division Tuesday. National Geographic Games will publish and develop games for consoles, handheld systems, mobile systems and online platforms. The games will be developed and published with partners Namco Bandai Games America and Sony Computer Entertainment. “I was very excited to read about National Geographic’s game efforts this morning. Using games to communicate and educate while also entertain is an area that is vastly underexplored,” said video game consultant Mark DeLoura.
