Chillingo to publish Superman game on iOS, out next month

Chillingo and Tiger Games have announced a partnership that will see a new Superman game released on iOS devices this November.

The game promises 18 levels of Spandex-clad action, which let you take control of the Man of Steel and his suite of superhuman abilities. You can expect to have super-strength, heat vision, and flight at your disposal, with bronze, silver, and gold medals awarded based on how you perform in each level.

Lex Luthor has been named as the game’s antagonist, but otherwise story details are thin on the ground. Early screenshots suggest something of a Golden Age feel to proceedings, so you can expect less Kryptonian angst and more all-American do-goodery and glinting smiles.

We’ll have more news as it emerges, but you can look forward to taking control of Kal-El some time next month.
