Gameloft has announced its intentions to develop games for the iPhone, with plans to release more than 15 titles by the end of 2008.

Utilizing the newly-released SDK, the company's development teams have already begun working on the games. "The iPhone gaming environment opens a new era in mobile gaming and is exactly what we've been waiting for," said Michel Guillemot, President of Gameloft.

"The Apple iPhone has changed the way consumers perceive and interact with their mobile phones, and the release of the SDK is a tremendous opportunity for Gameloft to apply its creative and innovative approach to mobile gaming.

"Due to our investment in creating one of the most advanced and creative development studios to date, we are ideally positioned today to seamlessly integrate new opportunities and quickly produce games that are as evolutionary as they are enjoyable."
