As per the deal, Nazara will have exclusive rights to build games around the cricketer across digital platforms including mobile, web and DTH.
"Millions of people in the world over spend hours playing games on their smartphones. When the idea was put forth about creating a Virat Kohli game using my animated character I naturally felt its a great idea; another innovative way for me to connect with my fans and thank them for their continued support. I can't wait to see the final product that my team creates for me," said Kohli.
The games will be available across prominent digital and mobile platforms, and will be accessible to audiences across the globe.
