Iron Maiden lanseerasi oman ”Iron Maiden: Legacy Of The Beast” -nimisen pelin

Englantilainen heavy metal -jättiläinen Iron Maiden on lanseerannut oman nimikkopelinsä nimeltä ”Iron Maiden: Legacy Of The Beast”. Yhtye on itse kommentoinut omaa peliään seuraavasti:

“We’ve always wanted to make a quality Maiden mobile game as we think the combination of Eddie and the music is so well suited – and it’s a great way to get our music out to a new audience! When the opportunity arose to make a mobile game which our fans, along with hopefully a lot of the gaming community, can play pretty well anywhere in the world, and download for free at that, we jumped at it. The whole band visited Roadhouse while touring through Vancouver back in April and we were so impressed by the creativity, enthusiasm and passion of the team there. Visually, the worlds and character designs do us proud and the music just ties it all together.”

“In ‘Iron Maiden: Legacy Of The Beast‘, players control Eddie’s destiny across a spectacularly diverse array of worlds by traveling through time in captivating 3D environments.

Players will amass an army of powerful allies to battle alongside Eddie and face the onslaught of foes hell-bent on destroying him. Legions of unrelenting enemies are commanded by the Agents of Control, including The Beast, The Wicker Man, Horus and The Axis General, all drawn from the expansive catalogue of Maiden’s albums and artwork.

The game offers over 40 different Talisman sets to choose from, which all add to characters’ vital abilities. With each battle, players will evolve their armies, take on ever-increasing challenges to reclaim the facets of Eddie’s soul, and ultimately defeat the Agents of Control.
