Nvidia announces Tegra Zone, highlights games for dual-core Android handsets

Nvidia have enjoyed some very positive press since it released its dual-core Tegra 2 processor, rightly so.

Not content with partnering with a number of manufacturers to power new ranges of powerful Android handsets, the company has announced a new mobile app for Android devices called Tegra Zone, an app that highlight and deliver the best games available for its dual-core processor.

The app will complement the Android Market, redirecting Android users to the marketplace if a user decides to download an app found via Tegra Zone. It will also provide “professional game reviews, high-res screenshots, HD video trailers, gameplay videos, and behind-the-scenes featurettes”.

Tegra Zone will launch with featured games – Dungeon Defender, Monster Madness, Fruit Ninja, Backbreaker THD, and Galaxy on Fire. Dungeon Defender is also the first Android mobile game to be built with Unreal Engine 3.
