Itching to pre-order a Samsung Galaxy S4? EA will have you covered with 16 supported games at launch
|

After the song and dance that accompanied the unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy S4 in New York, many Android gamers were left wondering what titles would run on the new device's larger screen.

So were we, for that matter. When we went hands on with the S4, we were a bit worried at the lack of games available on the demo models.

Thankfully, EA stepped in on Friday to assuage our concerns when it announced that it would have 16 titles available for the Galaxy S4 when it launches in April.

Sweet 16

Although EA was careful to not reveal its full suite of supported games, it did announce that two Pocket Gamer Gold Award winners - Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Real Racing 3 - would be among the 16 chosen titles.

Joining the two racing sims are The Simpsons: Tapped Out, PopCap's Plants vs. Zombies, Bejeweled Blitz, and The Sims Freeplay along with the upcoming, frenetic block puzzler Tetris Blitz.

We're not quite sure what the other nine planned titles are, but we'll update this story as soon as we find out.
