Infinity Blade Cross Comes to Mobage for iOS in Japan

Last year DeNA announced that it would be bringing Infinity Blade to its Mobage platform as a social game in Japan. And today it’s finally here. Officially titled Infinity Blade Cross, the title is a free-to-play iOS Japanese-language game that comes as a collaboration between Epic Games, its studio ChAIR Entertainment, as well as Japan’s iNiS Corporation.

Infinity Blade has been wildly successful on iOS so far, as the original version became the fastest growing app back in late 2010 upon its initial release, with $10 million in revenue in its first six months and $30 million in total. That was a paid app, and it will be interesting to see how Infinity Blade Cross fares in comparison using the free-to-play + virtual goods model.

I’m looking forward to giving this a test run later on, but if you’d like to give Infinity Blade Cross a try yourself, it’s available for download in the Japan App Store. You can check out the trailer as well as screenshots below.
