iPhone Mass Effect: Jacob’s Story screenshots revealed
To serve as a prequel for Mass Effect 2
We picked up on rumours of a Mass Effect spin off coming to the iPhone just the other day, and a new report from Joystiq brings those rumours one step closer to confirmation.
Screenshots have been revealed, along with more details on the game’s events. Apparently, this animation-styled top-down shooter will serve as a prequel to promote the forthcoming console release of Mass Effect 2.
It’ll indroduce characters such as bionic super-soldier Jacob Taylor, and will feature around two hours of gameplay. What’s more exciting, however, is the possibility EA and BioWare have alluded to regarding turning the iPhone Mass Effect game into a series - depending on the success of Jacob’s Story.
It’s slated for a $2.99 price point (so, what? About £1.79 in real money?) though no official news has yet been released. More as we get it.
