Tower defence sequel Fieldrunners 2 storming onto the iPhone at the end of June
Coming to iPad 'shortly afterwards'
All the way back in 2008, Subatomic Studios released an excellent tower defence title called Fieldrunners, which charged through our review room and nabbed a Pocket Gamer Bronze Award.
Fast-forward four years and the Massachusetts-based developer is almost ready to release a sequel. Fieldrunners 2 will march onto the iPhone at the end of next month and will storm the iPad "shortly afterwards".
This sequel will arrive packing 20 hand-painted levels spread across four distinct environments, including grassy fields and a secret volcano base. Naturally, you have to defend all of these using 20 upgradable towers, which range from a powerful sniper-like railgun tower to an explosive nuke tower.
Furthermore, the basic survival and time-trial maps found in Fieldrunners 2's predecessor are supplemented by special puzzle and sudden death maps, so there are plenty of modes to delve into.
A price for this sequel will be announced at a later date.
