Karlsruhe, Germany, September 20th 2012 –
TopWare Interactive AG and Reality Pump Games have released the
first batch of screenshots from
Iron Sky: Invasion, the official game of the
award-winning film Iron Sky.
The space combat sim allows players to shoot down fleet after
fleet of Nazi space fighters attempting to invade our planet from
the dark side of the Moon, and to stave off the “meteor
blitzkrieg” they are using to attempt to bombard our planet
into submission. The official “call to arms” has
already been sounded on the game’s homepage. Also, any brave
pilots in the community can meet up on Facebook to be informed
about everything that is happening on the frontline.
As ships such as the Rheingold and Valkyri position themselves
for the first attack, players must decide if they wish to fight off
the invaders with the fast British Spitfire or the more
heavily-armored but slow Japanese Banzai. All ship models have been
taken straight from the movie. Each ship class has different
advantages giving players the ability to adapt to every unexpected
need that will arise doing battle in the Cold Above. Utilizing the
game’s real-time star map, players can make tactical
decisions about where to jump and which ship class to use for any
given battle.
Alongside the screenshots of the Nazi ship classes Rheingold and
Valkyrie, as well as the British Spitfire, the Japanese Banzai and
Australian Dundee, the batch also features one shot of the huge
Nazi Zeppelins which carry the space fighters into the fog of
battle. In these gigantic vessels, hordes of enemy ships are lying
in wait to leave the hanger and give players a taste of bullet
hell.
The game will release for PC and Mac in November 2012. Other
versions will follow soon after. The
“Götterdämmerung” collector’s edition
will contain Iron Sky the movie packaged in with the
game.
