WASHINGTON, D.C. - March 6, 2012 - Imangi
Studios today announced that
Temple Run, the Top Grossing App and Top Free App in the
App Store in January 2012, will be released for Android devices on
March 27. Free to download,
Temple Run challenges players to test their reflexes as
they race down ancient temple walls and along sheer cliffs. With
endless gameplay, players collect coins as they jump, slide and run
to escape the evil monkeys guarding the temple while avoiding
obstacles.
“We are excited to finally share the Android release date
with our fans who have been so enthusiastic and supportive of
Temple Run,” said Keith Shepherd, co-founder of Imangi
Studios. “By expanding to more mobile devices, we hope to
provide the same addictive and fast-paced gameplay to an entirely
new group of players.”
The iOS version of
Temple Run for iPhone and iPad boasts over 40 million
downloads in the App Store since its debut in August 2011.
