Orange France customers first to have access to Call of Duty N-Gage Arena Pack

November 2, 2004 - Monaco – At the annual Nokia Mobility Conference, Nokia today announced N-Gage Arena Packs, additional game levels that are unlocked through the N-Gage Arena. The first N-Gage Arena Pack is for Activision, Inc.’s Call of Duty, an intense action game that allows players to experience the combat of World War II through the eyes of ordinary soldiers, fighting as part of a squad through the chaos of battle. This N-Gage Arena Pack will be available exclusively for N-Gage game deck users connecting to the N-Gage Arena via Orange France.

“The N-Gage Arena Packs are a great way for gamers to get access to additional content for their favorite titles,” said Gerard Wiener, Director, Network Game Solutions, Nokia. “Working with Orange France to give exclusive access for their N-Gage users is a great way for us to test the various aspects related to the N-Gage Arena Packs, for example billing and delivery, before rolling out the Packs worldwide.”

“At Orange, we are happy to use the Call of Duty N-Gage Arena Pack to provide exciting new content for our N-Gage users,” said Julien Billot, Orange. “Testing out the N-Gage Arena Packs helps us deliver more value for our subscribers.”

The Call of Duty N-Gage Arena Pack includes three additional levels for the game. N-Gage users discover, pay and download the N-Gage Arena Pack from inside the Call of Duty N-Gage Arena menu. Via a premium text message number, gamers pay for the N-Gage Arena Pack, which then appears as part of their monthly mobile phone bill.
