Blue Fang Games, often shortened to 'Blue Fang', is a computer game developer currently working in conjunction with Microsoft Game Studios. Zoo Tycoon 2: Marine Mania, Zoo Tycoon 2: Zookeeper Collection and Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals are all in the Games for Windows series.
Blue Fang is noted for the popular Zoo Tycoon series, which so far remains their only product line. However, a new series of games have been confirmed for the Nintendo DS and Wii (as well as the usual PC), in addition to Zoo Tycoon 2 DS, which is also developed by Blue Fang[1] and published by THQ. No details have emerged as of yet, besides they will stick to the animal-related concept.[2][3]
