We all gawped in shock when the Unreal Engine 3 was shown up and running on an iDevice in the form of the app ‘Epic Citadel’, which has been downloaded over one million times. We were told at the time that this was just a glimpse of the world created for Epic’s upcoming iDevice Action RPG, codenamed ‘Project Sword’. Well now Project Sword is no more, as it has been given an official title – ‘Infinity Blade’.
“The game’s robust single-player mode features an intuitive combat interface and simple touch controls which enable hardcore and casual gamers alike to engage in fun, furious battles. As play progresses, players gain experience, build stats and earn more powerful items to prepare their knight for the final encounter with the game’s nemesis, the God-King.
Additional content will be released free of charge via planned updates, including a fully integrated multiplayer mode, which enables players to find friends and other challengers to battle online via Game Center.”
This sounds mouth wateringly good, and is sure to send shivers down the spine of both Sony and Nintendo.

The screens or this look amazing. I expect the PSP2 to be able to produce games batter then this. One GOD-KING to rule them all!!!

I’m just concerned that the game won’t live up to the standards they set themselves with Epic Citadel. It’s one thing to render a completely unoccupied city, but to fill it with people, action, game mechanics?
Of course, there’s a chance that Epic factored that in to Epic Citadel and designed it accordingly, but I can imagine the temptation to make it look as good as possible may have been a bit too great.

Rubbish name for a game I think. Not one for games on touch screens, they never work correctly.
