[This unedited press release is made available courtesy of Gamasutra and its partnership with notable game PR-related resource GamesPress.]

FDG Entertainment is happy to announce that the highly anticipated Action RPG “Across Age” has been finally submitted to iTunes. It is expected to appear on the App Store very soon. The game is a co-production with Japanese developer EXE-Create and it has drawn comparisons to the famous “Zelda”* series. This comes as no surprise: “Across Age” is the first Action RPG to include real environmental puzzles, with the look of famous SNES and Genesis cartridge games. Across Age rekindles the golden 16BIT era.

Price: $6.99

Today, we are happy to present a TVCM trailer and updated screenshots (attached):

With over 15 hours of playtime, HD (iPhone/iPod optimized) graphics, exciting story, anime cut scenes, sweeping soundtrack/SFX and tons of diversified locations, monsters and riddles; Across Age is going to be a true console like experience.

The player steps into the role of 2 switchable characters: swordsman Ales and magician Ceska, each with own fighting and special skills that are needed to solve tricky puzzles and successfully battle fierce monsters. This cooperative element is one of the key features of the game. Another key feature is the possibility to travel through time and revisit places, enabling exciting events and riddles.
