New trailer released for the Unreal Engine-built Infinity Blade
Following months of insisting that mobile devices can host triple-A-standard production values, Epic Games is now flaunting its high-end iPhone project, Infinity Blade.
The game, which will mark Epic’s first commercial release for higher-end iOS devices, is already enjoying widespread praise for what is deemed to be unparalleled graphical sophistication on mobiles.
See for yourself in the video showcase below.
Developed by Epic subsidiary studio Chair Entertainment, the title has yet to be given a release date, and won’t be available on earlier iOS devices such as iPhone 3G.

“I think it's going to be an interesting future, especially if in two years we can really run Gears of War on an iPhone,” he recently claimed.
Epic Games has over the last twelve months made a commitment to Apple’s smartphones. The firm is now looking to see how it can licence its mobile Unreal Engine for developers of the devices.
The firm’s vice president Mark Rein has in the past expressed reservations regarding Android's marketplace.
okkkkkk! so now they really like the mobile platform.and it can really chunk out good real time graphics too.but do they know that not many more than casual gamers do not like the idea of playing a good graphic game on a cell phone screen?and that too which has no buttons?oh wait they put the buttons right ON the screen.that's just brilliant.hey wait maybe they launch an extended controller for it,which will be a flat screen with screen clicks on it,again.I mean this rapid mobile technology is growing faster but don't they understand that they are over hyping this?or maybe it's all part of apple's marketing strategies.they have done nothing major in gaming so far but they know their share is huge here too if they succeed.I think what they really need to do,if they can truly develop such good look graphics on a cellphone,is to discover better ways to play the game as in where are the zero latency response buttons?or let's just never mind this and enjoy the "superb" gaming experience by tilting our hands with the cellphone in it,and then the body like retards. xD
