As suggested by images on developer's Bulkypix's website and more formally when we interviewed CEO Vincent Dondaine - not to mention that leaked YouTube video - viral web community phenomenon MyBrute is coming to iPhone and iPod touch.

The web game, which is mixture of RPG and simple arena-battler, hosts 1.7 million visits per day and to date, over 70 million Brutes have been created.

Bulkypix's game will be a standalone version that's not connected to the web version.

Instead, working with MyBrute creators Motion Twin, Bulkypix has come up with version that will see you create up to eight Brutes, taking on a series of challenges, to gain experience and unlock up to 70 skills and weapons.

You can take on up to five opponents daily and they will be eight battle arenas. Obviously the goal is to be the Number 1 Brute in the world.

Community aspects of the game will be included via wi-fi and the OpenFeint platform so you can exchange ideas, challenge other Brutes as well as taking on pupils in your dojo. You'll also share victories and challenge friends on Facebook via Facebook Connect.

Bulkypix promises it will regularly provide new content and game modes too, to continually renew the game experience.
