Havok announced this morning that they have agreed to a licensing deal with 2K Games. Inder the agreement, 2K will utilize the Havok physic engine in a number of upcoming Nintendo Wii titles.

“Havok physics engines allow game developers to realistically depict motion and the effects the game character has on their environment. Havok technology communicates with physical elements in the game and loads them with intelligence, allowing them to react to the players’ actions in a realistic way. Of course, anyone who has used the Wii will recognise how important accurate movement is for the players’ enjoyment of the game.” - David O’ Meara, Managing Director at Havok

The first game in the deal is Carnval Games: Mini-Golf, which will be heading to the Wii this fall.
