Though it was one of the most disastrous wars in the lifetime of mankind, World War II has captured the minds of several people and influenced many others including video game developers. iPhone and iPod Touch gamers must have enjoyed fighting against this background in the ‘Skies of Glory’ game on their Apple devices. Now, Social Gaming Network has launched the title for Android users, making it the first multi-platform mobile game.
After debuting on the iPhone in December 2009, the aerial warfare-based game can now be enjoyed on Android-based mobile phones above 2.0 including the EVO, Nexus and Droid. Owners of Android-based mobile phones can immerse themselves in the game not only in a single-player mode but also in multiplayer game mode. They can also compete with their friends who possess an iPhone by spotting, engaging and shooting down an iOS-based player.
“Mobile phones are unquestionably the gaming platform of the future. Smartphones are becoming accessible to all, and we are really excited to offer a true multi-platform, multiplayer social mobile gaming experience through ‘Skies of Glory.’ As more and more people connect with family and friends through gaming, we continue to facilitate that connection regardless of users’ device or platform preferences,” remarked SGN CEO Randy Breen.
With the growing acceptance of the Android platform, SGN and Revo Solutions Games joined hands to develop an Open Platform Multiplayer Framework. This innovation would enable gamers to indulge in tremendous action by allowing them to play across a wide variety of devices. Users can utilize EDGE, 3G and Wi-Fi connection capabilities to battle live against their opponents. The title will transport gamers to an earlier era by displaying authentic planes while engaging them in intense fights over rugged landscapes such as mountains, deserts, islands and oceans.
The game has been developed by SGN and Revo Solutions Games for Android users and is now available. However, the pricing and exact availability details have not been disclosed yet.
