Zynga has now placed "the world's biggest macro bet on social gaming," says CEO Mark Pincus.
Despite being wildly profitable in 2010, net profit fell to just $1.4 million in the Q2 2011, down 90 percent year-over-year.
Five of the new products are for mobiles and some are HTML5 Facebook titles.
The new games are (via Guardian):
- CastleVille, the latest in the popular "Ville" franchise after FarmVille and CityVille
- Hidden Chronicles, a new genre based on finding hidden objects with friends
- Zynga Bingo joins Zynga Poker as the latest in the new Zynga Casino franchise
- Dream Zoo, the compay's first zoo-themed game
- Mafia Wars 2 launched on Monday, but on Tuesday launched on Facebook rival, Google+
- Three new HTML5 games for Facebook mobile: Words With Friends, Poker and FarmVille Express
- Project Z. Little was given away about Project Z, just that gamers will be able to continue Facebook games outside of the social network and reserve usernames from Tuesday
- Two other mobile games: Mafia Wars Shakedown and Dream Zoo
Zynga is expected to go public later this year, with a value of $1 billion due to its hundreds of millions of active users.
