EA has today announced it will distribute video games developed and published by Red Eagle Games based on Robert Jordan’s beloved fantasy series, The Wheel of Time. Games are in development for consoles, PC, handhelds and wireless devices.

In addition, Red Eagle will launch and operate a massively multiplayer online role-playing game that encompasses the themes, characters and world of The Wheel of Time. This title will be distributed at retail by EA.

“The Wheel of Time is a blockbuster global brand and our relationship with EA Partners will ensure that Red Eagle Games’ products are made available to consumers around the world through familiar retail channels,” said Rick Selvage, Chairman and President of Red Eagle Games.

David DeMartini, senior vice president and general manager of EA Partners commented: “The Wheel of Time series has a massive worldwide following and we’re excited to help give Red Eagle Games’ interactive products a blockbuster launch on the global stage.”

Last year it was announced that Universal Pictures had acquired film rights to the series in a seven-figure deal, with adaptations to begin with the first book, The Eye of the World.
