Matt Groening to release a new Futurama game for Android

Matt Groening is much better known for the "yellow" series of The Simpsons of which many of us, almost thirty seasons after its inception, continue to be unconditional fans. However, Groening is also the creator of a television series that, despite having much less success, perhaps his fans are even more unconditional. We talk about Futurama. In fact, few series or television shows are able to continue in people's imaginations after several years have passed since it was canceled, and one of them is Futurama.

Futurama had several ups and downs and basically went through two stages, first on Fox and then on Comedy Central, where it was finally canceled in 2013. In Spain, the series has been broadcast on different channels, including Fox Spain or the channels of the ATresMedia group. Antena 3 and Neox. Now, some of the original creators of Futurama and part of the cast of actors who voiced the characters, will once again work together to create a new game for mobile devices, Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow.

Futurama will return in the form of a game for mobile devices

Through the Press release by which the next arrival of the new game has been announced, it has also been indicated that the creator and executive producer of the television series Futurama, Matt Groening, will help create the new content for the game Worlds of tomorrow, along with executive producer David X. Cohen and names who also appeared on the original series. Rough Draft Studios, the team behind the animated series, will also collaborate with the game's developers, TinyCo.

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! TinyCo ™, a Jam City Company, and Fox Interactive today announced the development of Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow, a new game for mobile devices. The game features original content from Futurama creator and executive producer Matt Groening, executive producer David X. Cohen, and much of the team behind the beloved television series. TinyCo is also working with Rough Draft Studios - Futurama's original animators - to bring the brand's humor, the brand's visual style, and overall comic adventure to mobile gamers around the world.

It will be an independent and original title

At the moment, no further details have been communicated about Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow but it is already known that it will be a free and independent title. Previously, the same company TinyCo developed another game based on another animated series for adults on the Fox channel, Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff (Family Guy: In Search of Things), which has had great success, so the new Futurama game could include certain game elements similar to Family Guy.

About a year ago, another mobile game based on the Matt Groening series was released. The title in question is Futurama: Game of Drones However, the truth is that it is not an original game based on the plot and characters of the series, but rather an adaptation of the popular game Candy Crush Saga. Now, with the proven experience of the TinyCo team, combined with input from Matt and the other members of the television series team,  Futurama: Worlds of Tomorrow it could become a real hit with fun new stories from Fry, Leela, Bender and the rest of the characters.

"I love this game because it feels like Futurama," said Matt Groening, creator and executive producer of Futurama and The Simpsons.
