Wolf has decided to enter into the world of iPhone app creation. Not much can be said yet about this new project but Wolf has partnered with long time manager Keith Boesky to develop a line of iPhone applications.
The pair have teamed up with an as yet to be announced television network, creating a unique offering with a built in audience. The application will tap Wolf’s game design experience but the app will be more than just a game.
More on this as we get closer to launch.
