Disney to Publish ‘Chicken Little’ Games

Walt Disney Co. will publish a range of video games to accompany “Chicken Little,” its first fully computer-animated film, the company said.

The move comes as Disney executives consider whether to mount a bigger push in the video game industry, a strategy that would set the studio apart from the approach now favored by its Hollywood counterparts of licensing their franchises to major game publishers.

Disney’s Buena Vista Games division said it would publish console, hand-held and PC versions of games based on “Chicken Little,” marking the first time it has published a game itself for multiple platforms at the same time.
