Gameloft's Star Battalion, new images and videos, Review

A few days ago, the successful game development company Gameloft has launched what will presumably be another of its greatest hits on the App Store: Star Battalion for iPhone and iPod Touch.

In Star Battalion you will join the forces of the Resistance to defeat the monarchical tyrants.

In this beastly game from Gameloft you will control a star pilot who fights against the monarchical forces that have taken over the galaxy. You will have to lead the Resistance in this space simulation.

You will immerse yourself in fantastic worlds and undertake different missions in a large fleet of ships. Throughout Star Battalion you will discover and live a story of betrayal, ambition and hope, and fight to restore peace to a galaxy in ruins. You can join forces with other pilots in local and online multiplayer mode (Wi-Fi or Bluetooth) or join other pilots in their campaign through the Game Center.

KEEP READING the rest after the jump, that you will miss the best and the videos.

The missions that you will have to carry out as the future Leader of the Resistance take place in a wide variety of environments, including a planet of sand, a planet covered in snow, and a futuristic city. In the missions you will have various objectives that to be able to complete them you will have to do different things, for example collect a kind of holocubes or prevent the monarchical forces from building a super weapon.

Get into the cockpit of 4 ships, each with its own arsenal of weapons and the necessary skills for the different missions. But you must face a fleet of enemy ships, small and large, piloted by ruthless villains and all have their own devastating weapons.

In each mission you will find new challenges. In some you will have to test your speed and reflexes, while in others the important thing is the strategy. You will live a story full of unforgettable characters, ambition, epic conflicts and unexpected twists.

Connect to Apple's Game Center to unlock achievements by completing various challenges and performing stunts. You can also use the gyroscope and feel the heat of the battle in 360º.

Star Battalion Pros:

- Bestial, amazing, great… .I don't put more adjectives than you will say that I am a ball.
- Customizable controls and with the option to use the gyroscope.
- Stunning graphics optimized for the retina display.
- The large number and variety of levels.
- And the multiplayer mode is also remarkable but now I'll talk more about it.

Cons of Star Battalion:

- I only missed the "Deathmatch" option in multiplayer to be able to fight my friends (I hope they can incorporate it in a future update).

With Star Battalion, Gameloft, once again has left me almost speechless due to its magnificent graphics, optimized for the retina screen and control through the gyroscope that you believe it or not, after spending 10 minutes using it, I no longer knew if I was lying on my couch, or if I was really piloting a spaceship for its perfection (maybe I was influenced by the dream I had).

I put several videos for you to see each other in space side by side because of the desire you will have to have Star Battalion, the first of your own homegrown.
