Infinity Blade 'Arena' update adds multiplayer, survivor modes this Thursday
10
The next big content update for Chair Entertainment's epic iOS sword battler, Infinity Blade, comes out swinging this Thursday, May 19. By far the most notable addition, the new Arena Mode introduces 1v1 multiplayer combat via Game Center.
Also making the cut is Survivor Mode, which challenges players to last as long as possible in an endless gauntlet of Titan battles. A variety of new weapons and items are also being introduced, including special holiday-themed helms. Finally, Infinity Blade will gain Facebook integration with the update, enabling players to take and share screenshots of their characters through a streamlined process.
The "Arena" update will be free of charge and, if past Thursday releases on the App Store are any indication, will actually roll out in North America this Wednesday night around 11:30PM ET.

This is my favorite game in the app store. The graphics are absolutely incredible. I got lucky and purchased the app when it was on sale for a dollar.

Awesome game, even if the repetition will get to you after a while. I won't be surprised if they announce a Kinect/Move version at E3.

You think they would do a Move version? Kinect probably...

Why wouldn't they? Except if MS was to pay for exclusivity, that is.

I think this game would translate well to both kinect and move like fruit ninja and some other ios and android games
