JoWooD and Bigben get comfortable

JoWooD has handed off more of its publishing duties to a third party, by penning an agreement that will see Bigben Interactive market and distribute 21 titles (mostly back catalogue) for PC, PS2 and Psone in Germany, France, Benelux and Switzerland. We take it this means that the publisher will continue its duties in other regions - like the good old U of K. Amongst the 21 titles are PC newcomers Spellforce and Söldner: Secret Wars, which are due out soon.

Meanwhile, in Italy JoWooD has signed a distribution agreement with Digital Bros., who will manage the publisher's Italian line-up.
