Update: It looks like there was a bit of a mix up, as these games are for feature phones, not Android. Here is Gameloft's official statement on the matter:
I can confirm there has been a confusion. The lineup we have announced yesterday is only for feature phones (java and brew).
We do not announce in advance our line up of games for Android and iOS. Usually we announce our games for iPhone and Android separately (one announcement for each game).
Sorry for the confusion.
