Paramount Pictures said this year it will be expanding its interactive department to publish video games, focusing in particular on casual, handheld and mobile games, according to Variety. The studio, which created a new global business unit in February, is now saying it will make a multi-million investment to create games, too. Various games will take different paths, whether they are published in house, co-published or licensed to other game developers. The Viacom (NYSE: VIA) studio will be tapping the expertise of two industry executives: Matt Candler will be VP of interactive development, in charge of developer relations for games the studio is funding and will also help package film properties into games.
