One Animation, goGame Team for Oddbods Turbo Run

Following a soft launch in the U.S., Malaysia, and the Philippines last month, Oddbods Turbo Run is now global. From goGame, a subsidiary of SEGA, the endless runner mobile game puts One Animation‘s Oddbods into an adventure in which players can run, sprint, jump, and slide their way across Oddsville. The game is available on the iOS App Store and Google Play, and has now been translated into 10 languages—Spanish, French, Portuguese, Turkish, Russian, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Bahasa Indonesia, Thai, and Vietnamese.

The global rollout of Oddbods Turbo Run is the first of several new brand activations and initiatives for Oddbods this year.
