Hype for Infinity Blade III is reaching critical levels as the game gets set to launch later this week, and we’ve already had our hands all over an early build and are pretty stoked about what we’ve seen so far. GameTrailers has posted an extended look at the game with commentary from some of the folks at Chair to help explain some of the interesting new features in Infinity Blade III, like multiple playable characters, potion crafting, weapon forging and gem infusing, and re-forging weapons which have had all their available XP drawn out in order to re-level them and unlock new abilities. Check it out.
Infinity Blade III is the completion of the core trilogy, but just because the story ends doesn’t mean the game won’t live on for a long time to come. Chair also notes that they’ve built tech into the game which isn’t even possible to take advantage of with current hardware, but will be ready to roll in future hardware upgrades. It sounds like it will be another technical achievement for iOS gaming, so strap in for much more Infinity Blade III coverage as we lead up to its launch this Thursday.

It won't let me download it. It says that I can't connect to the iTunes Store every time I try. Even though I'm already there.
It was free in the beginning.
Yeah. I was surprised to see that a game that I thought had always been free had dropped in price.
Cracking game though.
Cracking?
Yup - as in "This is cracking cheese Grommit"
No one or thing is ever completely free....
>:)
Is the update broken for anybody else? It keeps changing my movement direction to "down" even when I'm not touching the screen.
Yeah, it's buggy for me too. I don't know if it's the update or iOS 7. I've been lifting my thumb really high just to make sure I'm not accidentally hitting the screen and it randomly just changes direction (sometimes killing half my train). Pretty annoying.
Yes, it happens to my too. At the beginning thought that I was doing something wrong, but is a bug :( hope they fix it soon.
My invisible controller arrived this morning. It's got everything I ever wanted and it makes a superb latte.
But is it cordless?
Silly.
It has an onboard cold fusion reactor
Plus my dog now has that new-car smell
This game suuuuuuucked "my personal preference anyway" sorry guys I bought it cause of your review but for me I just couldn't get into it!
Free game of the week ? Just unannounced yet ?
Best version of snake to date.
A frustrating game...can't get into it.
Keeps crashing on ios 7 every time I touch 'play'. No wonder its free.
This is why I always wait a few weeks before updating my iOS until all the apps are updated for it.
I liked this game but the devs just haven't been putting any effort into keeping it relevant. Controller support? La-dee-da. What about new heroes? New levels?
iCloud support? no
Achievements? no
Stupid, useless "everyplay face cam support"? Hell yes
... The heck is wrong with them?
