Reviews for the Nexus Player are streaming in today after the first Android TV device officially became available. The consensus around the Interwebs appears to be that the Nexus Player is generally pretty good, but a lack of support, particularly in the games department, that mars the launch of the device just a little. However, if you do happen to get a Nexus Player, there won’t be a shortage of games from one particular games publisher. Gameloft has announced today that 10 games from its illustrious game library will be available to play on the Nexus Player at launch.
The 10 Gameloft games that will support Android TVÂ include:
- Despicable Me: Minion Rush,
- Asphalt 8: Airborne,
- Modern Combat 4 : Zero Hour,
- Modern Combat 5: Blackout,
- GT Racing 2 The Real Car Experience,
- Dungeon Hunter 4,
- My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic,
- Wonder Zoo,
- Ice Age Village,
- World at Arms
That’s a pretty impressive list of games – the one that catches our eye ins Modern Combat 5, their latest FPS experience – and the support of one of the biggest names in mobile gaming will hopefully encourage other developers and publishers to also give their games Android TV compatibility sooner rather than later.
