Looney Tunes get a mobile game from Warner Bros. and Scopely

Scopely has signed a deal with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, bringing Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Wile E. Coyoute, Yoemite Sam, Tweety Bird and other Looney Tunes characters in the form of a mobile game.

Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem allows players to collect their favourite characters, build personalised towns, battle with neighbours in prank-combat and cause mayhem. The multiplayer mobile game slated to be released this fall preserves the original comedy from the animated shorts giving a modern entertainment experience.

Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem is the latest game from Scopely. Its earlier titles include The Walking Dead: Road to Survival, an RPG based on AMC’s hit TV show; WWE: Champions, a puzzle-matching role-playing game; Wheel of Fortune Free Play; and Yahtzee! With Buddies.

“We have worked really hard to make sure that we maintain the level of humour you would have gotten from the show, and level it up. We maintain the sense of fun: the dropping anvils, the rolling boulders (and other ACME devices of destruction).” Scopely chief revenue officer Tim O’Brien told Deadline.

The game is being published by Scopely under a pact with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and is developed in partnership with Brazil’s Aquiris Game Studio.
