MUMBAI: Paramount Digital Entertainment, a division of the Hollywood studio major Paramount, has announced that the Iron Man: Aerial Assault game for the iPhone and iPod touch is available on the Apple App Store.

The game is based on the 2008 Marvel Studios film, released by Paramount Pictures.

The game gives players the opportunity to play as Iron Man and engage in aerial combat and challenges that require quick maneuvering and accurate shooting. As players navigate through high altitude battles, they will soar through 12 different levels of airborne combat where menacing enemies will not rest until they have conquered the skies. To aid in the mission, players have access to high-powered weaponry and strategic flying mechanisms that will serve to eliminate those that stand in Iron Man's path.

Using an upgradeable, high-powered armor developed by Stark Industries, players will hone their skills by using a variety of weapons to battle through wave after wave of enemy units. With the touch of a thumb, players can access, charge and fire an arsenal of state-of-the-art weapons including repulsor blasts, missiles, and the devastating Unibeam.

Developed by doublesix, the game utilises the innovative technology in iPhone and iPod touch.
