Konami Mobile Debuts Top-Selling Franchise for iPhone and iPod Touch
Konami
Digital Entertainment, Inc. today announced the availability of Metal
Gear Solid Touch on Apple's App Store. Based on the top-selling
franchise that pioneered the stealth-action genre, Metal Gear Solid
Touch is now available for iPhone and iPod touch users.
"Redesigned to take full advantage of the revolutionary iPhone and iPod
touch, we think Metal Gear Solid Touch is setting new standards
in gameplay and graphics for future mobile games," said Anthony Borquez,
Vice President of Konami Mobile and Online. "With each Metal
Gear Solid title, Konami strives to create a new experience that
fans of the classic tactical espionage action game have come to expect
from the series. Metal Gear Solid Touch does just that and more
for iPhone and iPod touch users."
Developed by Kojima Productions and designed specifically for iPhone and
iPod touch, Metal Gear Solid Touch covers the final chapter in
the legendary saga of Solid Snake. Players join forces with Old Snake as
he battles the money-driven mercenaries of Private Military Companies
(PMCs), Haven Troopers, Gekko, and the beautiful yet terrifying bosses
of the B&B Corps. This commercial warfare adventure follows Old Snake
across the Middle East, South America, Eastern Europe, and Shadow Moses
as he depletes his enemies’ stamina with various short-range and
long-range weapons. Metal Gear Solid Touch also features twenty
levels of gameplay and well-known antagonists from the past.
Metal Gear Solid Touch is available for $7.99 from Apple’s App
Store on iPhone and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.
