Gameloft has released a teaser video of its soon to be released N.O.V.A. Elite first person shooter game. The video concentrates solely on the multiplayer part of the game; rumors do suggest that this game may be multiplayer only.
Rumors also point to the game being available for free with in-app purchases of weapons and power ups. This would encourage more customers to get online initially to build up momentum and create a vibrant online player base, which is critical for a multiplayer game to succeed.
We will have to wait and see what the final release will bring; it shouldn’t be too much longer! In the mean time, take a look at the video after the break and let us know if you plan on picking this one up when its released!

"Rumors also point to the game being available for free with in-app purchases of weapons and power ups. This would encourage more customers to get online initially to build up momentum and create a vibrant online player base, which is critical for a multiplayer game to succeed."
It will also allow the game to meet the same fate as Eliminate Pro, which, in spite of moderate success, is now known as a competitive environment ruined by advantages purchased for real-world money.
A sad fate for any online competitive shooter.
Down with in App Purchasing!! Just make the game 99 cents and let us use all the weapons or whatever you have in the game... making us pay 99 cents for each weapon and armor is insane. Any apps with in app purchasing like this I will never buy!
same....i rather them make me pay for an update rather than paying for those items individually.
i was hoping this would be using the unreal engine .. i guess that's really too soon considering the leadup time it takes.
