Amazon Games Studios recently launched its first gaming app in another move indicating the company is taking expansion into mobile gaming seriously. Sev Zero: Air Support isn't a stand-alone application, but rather a "companion tablet app" for the Amazon Fire TV Sev Zero game that allows a second player to join in on the fun. The two-player multiple screen experience allows users to work together and save the planet.
Previously the game was only available for Android devices including the Kindle Fire HDX tablet. The companion gaming app is compatible now for both Android and iOS. This demonstrates Amazon Games could be expanding to look at a market beyond committed Amazon/Android consumers who have already bought into their products, according to TechCrunch.
