LOS ANGELES, CA, and SANTA MONICA, CA, Nov. 12, 2013 – Reliance Games, a leading international mobile game studio, and Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF), a leading global entertainment company, are bringing the next chapter in The Hunger Games saga to mobile devices.

YOU GUYS! We are so unbelievably excited for this game! Look at that screenshot! (Also, check out what district that is! What do you think the other districts will look like?) For those who don't follow us on our personal tumblrs or twitters, we are into games. A lot of them. As a fan of endless running games myself (Hunger Games: Girl on Fire, Temple Run, Jetpack Joyride, Subway Surfers, and my personal favorite, Minion Rush), I can already tell that this game is going to be AWESOME!!!
