Sesame Workshop inks a deal with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to publish a series of interactive and educational videogames based on its characters.
The games will be compatible with various platforms, including Sony PlayStation and Nintendo console systems, and will make use of motion and video controllers. The games are expected to debut in late 2010.
This deal follows the fall 2009 agreement in which Warner Bros. began distributing Sesame Street home videos.
