Infinity Blade to hit App Store on Dec 9th
Epic Games has announced that the long awaited iOS game Infinity Blade will be in the App Store on December 9th. The game will be available for the iPad, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, as well as third- and fourth-generation iPod Touch devices at a cost of $5.99.
Infinity Blade will be the first full game to utilize Epic’s Unreal Engine 3. Epic Citadel, already available in the App Store, is a short demonstration level showing the power of the Unreal Engine on iOS devices. If you haven't seen it, it is free and definitely worth a look. [iTunes Link]
Infinity Blade is an RPG (Role Playing Game). You are a Knight in a giant 3D Castle environment, in search of a God-King, battling various enemies to gain new weapons and powers in your quest.
So mark your calendar, this is one great looking game, my iPad is twitching with anticipation, who’s getting this one when it hits?

Wow, looks... epic! Is that the game that was once called "Project Sword"?
i'm all over this game once it comes out. love RPG's and this one looks amazing!
I'm quite surprised at the price. Considering this is really a portable console quality game, I thought it would be a lot more. I want to get it and that's an awesome price for a universal app. Here's hoping it's a best seller. Maybe it will be the RPG version of Angry Birds popularity wise. Now we see if they port it to Android and get themselves on the same list as Gizmodo....
Finally!!! best news ever :) Let the portable gaming consoles disappear iPhone is the future!
I am ready for this, despite having no interest in most rpg's.
A game like this is much harder to do for Android. Android has buggy OpenGL contexts; when you are pushing the graphics hardware this much, buggy graphic-renderers are not good at all.
Not impossible on Android, but very difficult.
Is $5.99 £2.99?
$5.99 at today's exchange rate works out about -£3.85
I agree with West, I have no interest in RPGs but I am willing to give this a shot.
@Chad In terms of App Store pricing, $5.99 is £3.49 I believe.
can not wait...
Tell me it uses the gyroscope, please...
