Afrika heading to U.S., National Geographic to publish

Remember Afrika? Well, it’s Afrika no longer; meet National Geographic: Africa.

National Geographic is jumping headfirst into the gaming industry by snagging the publishing rights to the PS3 wildlife photography title, which is expected to launch in North America next month. There’s no word on a European release just yet.

National Geographic Games also announced it has partnered with Namco Bandai Games America and Sony Computer Entertainment to publish and distribute future National Geographic-branded titles globally on major gaming consoles and handheld devices, including the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, PlayStation 3 and PSN, PCs and mobile devices such as the iPhone.
