Last week a trailer for a mysterious fantasy-based game by Gameloft hit the internet, causing rampant speculation across the iPhoneiverse (If that’s not a word, it should be) regarding which game it was that Gameloft was setting its sights on next. We speculated this could be Gameloft’s take on Zelda, and from the looks of it, that’s exactly what we’re getting.
Check out the new trailer:
Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden seems to have everything a good Zelda-esque game should have: A horse to ride around, items to use to get passed various obstacles, sliding block puzzles, and massive bosses. I’m excited to give it a try as Darksiders basically proved that I will play any game with similar gameplay mechanics to completion regardless of how good or bad it is. (Or in the case of Darksiders, how much headache-indusing screen tearing it has.)
Sacred Odyssey is landing on the App Store next month, likely launching at Gameloft’s typical price point of somewhere between $4.99 and $6.99. In the meantime, we’ve got a thread for the game in our upcoming games forum if you’re looking for even more speculation about the game.
