After revealing the game just two weeks ago, Gameloft has released Brothers in Arms: Hour of Heroes ($9.99), a 3D, third-person shooter placing players in the role of a WWII soldier in the 101st Airborne Division.
Players use a virtual directional pad to move around their character, swiping the touchscreen to look around and aim (alternate controls are provided). Elements like ducking for cover and jumping over obstacles are handled automatically by the game.
Gameloft’s store description for Hour of Heroes provides the following details:
- 14 missions and 3 campaigns: Normandy, Ardennes, and Tunisia
- Drive a 4×4 vehicle or a Sherman tank and use a wide range of weapons (bazooka, sniper rifle, machine guns, etc.)
- Use the accelerometer function to launch grenades and the touch screen to shoot at enemies.
The game looks a lot like the Brothers in Arms title released for the N-Gage and later the Nintendo DS, so a lot of the content might seem familiar if you’ve played those versions. The iPhone-specific additions, like the accelerometer/grenade feature, are nice, though!
