Chillingo, an independent games publisher and division of Electronic Arts, is partnering with Peanuts Worldwide to develop a new “Snoopy Coaster” app.

The new game takes players on a thrilling roller coaster ride with Snoopy and his friends as they help Snoopy speed through the endless runner to collect coins, power-ups and unlock new features.

The game will launch this month.

“There’s something in Peanuts that everyone can relate to, and we are always looking for new ways to share the characters with future generations,” says Leigh Anne Brodsky, managing director, Peanuts Worldwide. “Partnering with a leading gaming publisher like Chillingo is a great step in that direction. Plus, ‘Snoopy Coaster’ delivers a fantastic, fun experience for players who want the thrill ride of their lives.”

“Peanuts is the most famous comic strip in the world with its beloved characters ranging from Snoopy and Charlie Brown to Linus, Lucy and Peppermint Patty,” says Ed Rumley, chief operating officer, Chillingo. “We’re proud to partner with Peanuts Worldwide to bring ‘Snoopy Coaster’ and all these familiar faces to iOS and introduce more fans to the fun-filled world of Peanuts.”
