Taylor Swift to lend her star power for a new mobile game

Taylor Swift is entering yet another venture that will most likely have her raking in more money. The pop superstar is said to be developing a game with Glu Mobile. Glu has worked with other big stars like Kim Kardashian and supposed rival Katy Perry to out Kim Kardashian Hollywood and Katy Perry Pop, respectively. No details yet about the title or type of game will be made with Taylor Swift's name attached to it. According to Glu CEO Niccolo de Masi, "We realize that Taylor and her global fan base expect a new and highly differentiated mobile gaming experience."

What that difference is, we don't know yet. But with her massive social media following (70.4 million on Twitter and 64.8 million on Instagram), we're sure she will be earning some serious money here. Kardashian's game reportedly took in US$43 million in its first three months.

With the new Bond flick, Spectre, coming out soon, it means different promotions are going to pop up to promote the 24th movie in the franchise. Glu Mobile and MGM teamed up to create the free-to-play mobile game James Bond: World of Espionage. It’s a multiplayer strategy RPG game that has you finding, recruiting, and developing spies for the MI6 HQ in London. And since you’ll be going on covert missions around the world, you need to have the best team with you.

You can also play things like the Alliance Wars or join limited time event challenges to help make your agency the best. The game employs over 100 real-world actors and models to play both agents and villains, making you feel like James Bond himself, even if it’s just for a game.
