The Minions are multiplying.
A new partnership between video game maker Electronic Arts, Minions producer Illumination Entertainment and Universal Partnerships & Licensing will bring the quirky yellow creatures and other characters from upcoming illumination films to mobile games, beginning with Minions Paradise.
The game will be free to download beginning this summer, dovetailing with the U.S. theatrical release of Minions on July 10. Minions Paradise will allow players to create their own tropical Minion utopia and take control of a newly created Minion named Phil.
