GMX to distribute Buka titles in UK
Battling ahead.
GMX Media will distribute two of publisher Buka Entertainment's latest PC titles in the UK in 2004, with games like Fair Strike, Echelon: Wind Warriors and Steamland already on store shelves thanks to a deal with Oxygen Interactive.
The two new GMX titles are The Entente: World War I Battlefields, a real-time strategy game in which players get to command the French, German, Russian, Austria-Hungarian or British campaigns across a number of accurately recreated battlefields, and Battle Mages, billed as a role-playing strategy title.
GMX COO Barry Leonard has high hopes for both. "We expect 2004 to be a great year for GMX as we continue to sign bigger titles," he said in a statement. Exhibiting an interesting level of optimism, he added: "The Entente promises to be a blockbuster. We have absolutely no doubt that this will be one of the best-selling PC titles in 2004, we are very excited about it."
