Bad Company 2, Icebreaker, Sleepy Jack and more announced for Xperia Play

Thanks to a burst of block-shaped internet discharge last week, we already knew that Minecraft, Mojang’s uber popular crafting game, will soon be running on Xperia play as an exclusive title for a limited time.

Today Sony Ericsson has padded out the list with a few more announcements.

Among them are EA’s giant WW2 shooter franchise Battlefield: Bad Company 2, already available on iOS and a Pocket Gamer Bronze Award winner on that platform.

Sleepy Jack may be another to keep your eyes on, developed as it is by Silver Tree Media of beautiful Android platformer Cordy (itself a Pocket Gamer Silver Award winner).

Also worth a puck is NaturalMotion’s Icebreaker, recently released on iOS and a follow-up to the hugely popular Backbreaker Football, which was among the first games to appear in the Android Market Tegra Zone.

And Swedish developer Polarbit is working on Mario Kart-sque racer Cracking Sands, a trailer for which you can see under the full release list below.
