Taito’s Space Invaders Infinity Gene [$4.99] has to be one of the most well received games here on TouchArcade. We loved it, and our readers loved it, and it really demonstrated how a classic could be properly revived on the iPhone platform.
Next on Taito’s list is Arkanoid — the 1986 brick breaker that modernized Breakout and has been endlessly imitated. Arkanoid introduced special bricks, enemy ships, power ups and more to the classic brick breaking formula. According to Taito “a new legend is about to be born" and that they are bringing Arkanoid back and it will be “all new".
We’ve confirmed with Taito that this version will be coming to the iPhone. Little else is known so far, though details and a video are going to be released shortly.
Update: Video has been posted
