Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, Beaterator Coming to iPhone


chinatownwarsRockstar Games announced today that it will bring a pair of titles to the iPhone and iPod Touch later this year. App Store customers can look for Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars and Beaterator this fall.

Chinatown Wars debuted earlier this year for the Nintendo DS. While it received ample promotion and widespread critical acclaim, the game ultimately failed to meet sales expectations, selling 163,000 units in its first two months of release.

Rockstar recently announced plans to port Chinatown Wars to Sony’s PlayStation Portable platform. Another of the company’s upcoming PSP releases, the music mixing application Beaterator, is also coming to the iPhone this year.

Co-produced by music producer Timbaland, Beaterator allows users to mix their own music tracks using an included selection of beats, loops, and samples. Beaterator is developed by Rockstar Leeds, the studio behind Chinatown Wars and the PSP Grand Theft Auto titles Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories.

No release date or price point has yet been announced for either title.
