Wild Blood now available on iOS App Store

Gameloft has been hard at work on its new iOS offering Wild Blood. The game is finally out for iPhones and iPads. The game is compatible with the iPhone 3GS and all devices after it, and requires iOS 4.0 and above. The game boasts of a variety of features, including multiplayer with 8-player team deathmatch and capture the flag game modes.

According to Gameloft, the story of the game goes, “King Arthur has gone mad, fueled by his jealousy toward Lancelot for romancing his wife, Queen Guinevere. In his desperation, Arthur has been tricked by his sister, the all-powerful sorceress Morgana Le Fey, to open the Hellgate and allow all forms of demons to enter the world. Meanwhile, Morgana has captured Guinevere and holds her hostage on the magical island of Avalon. Now Lancelot needs to confront King Arthur and Morgana, and free the world from these evil creatures and save Guinevere.”

Wild Blood is now available on the iOS store

Wild Blood got a trailer last month where Gameloft showed off much of the gameplay of the game, including the level up system, different kinds of weapons and a variety of spells you can use. The game looks like an action rpg (role playing game) with a focus on combat, much like the Fable series or Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, with a focus on hack and slash gameplay as opposed to stats or other character development.
