SAN FRANCISCO – December 5, 2012 – Freeverse, a subsidiary of DeNA Co., Ltd. (TSE: 2432) and The Dimensional Branding Group (DBG), the licensing agency responsible for Skee-Ball licensing and promotions announced today that they are releasing the sequel to the highly acclaimed Skee-Ball game on iOS with Skee-Ball 2.

The new game is reinvented with many new features and game mechanics, including multiplayer to compete with friends, retina graphics, authentic skee-ball sounds, improved NVIDIA PhysX engine that delivers console-quality physics so the ball rolls and bounces hyper-realistically, and new Beast light mapping technology that provides real-time, realistic lighting.
