Tyga is making headlines again - not for his crazy ex-girlfriends, or his controversial relationship with "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star Kylie Jenner. This time, Tyga's making headlines for his new game app called "Tyga Kingin' World Tour."
It seems as though Tyga is following the footsteps of his girlfriend's older sister, Kim Kardashian. Kanye West's wife released an app called "Kim Kardashian: Hollywood" some time ago.

Launched just this week, the game app isn't something new - other apps have the same basic concept of collecting coins as the character, in this case, Tyga, runs through the streets.
Created by Cash2win, the game is also in collaboration with Cashplay. "Tyga's music and industry influence offered us an exceptional opportunity to reach our core audience," said Cashplay CEO Jarrod Epps.

"This title is an exciting first release of a string of games featuring influential sports and entertainment stars who we have signed to our eSports game label," Epps added.
However, the premise behind "Tyga Kingin' World Tour" is running away from the paparazzi, as users try their best not to get caught all while catching coins and bonus items on the way as they play Tyga's avatar.
Watch the video below to see how the game actually plays out.
According to Gist Reel, Tyga's looking to get one million downloads within its first week so he can pay his rent. Reports claim that the rapper is currently being sued for not paying rent for his home, which is $16,000 per month.
But Tyga hasn't paid rent in two months, so he's definitely got a lot on his plate and will need the app to cash in and finally pay his dues by Saturday.
"Tyga Kingin' World Tour" is currently available on Apple's App Store. A version for Android devices will soon be released as well.
