Zynga Inc., the largest developer of games on Facebook Inc.’s site, will offer a Chinese version of “CityVille” via Tencent Holdings Ltd.’s service to bring its most popular game to the world’s biggest Internet market.
Called “Zynga City,” the game will be available on Tencent’s Pengyou service within days before a broader release, San Francisco-based Zynga said in a statement today. The game will be offered in the Chinese language and feature elements inspired by Chinese traditional and pop culture, Zynga said.
