SGN Announces Skies of Glory - Battle of Britain App Now Available on App Store
PALO ALTO, Calif., March 30 -- SGN, a leader in cutting-edge social mobile gaming, today announced the launch of its Skies of Glory -- Battle of Britain App for iPhone and iPod touch on the App Store. The app includes dozens of in-game items and features previously only available via micro-transactions because, for a limited time, players who buy the app will save substantially on these add-ons. Passionate pilots can now receive the Battle of Britain campaign bundle, which includes ten new heart-pounding missions, the very popular Skirmish Mode, which adds 95 additional dogfight missions, the War Games Mission Pack that includes 10 missions, and four planes that can be unlocked as the player progresses.
"The Skies of Glory -- Battle of Britain App for iPhone and iPod touch is our response to player demand for high-quality games that offer an online console experience. This launch is another step in the evolution of quality, multiplayer, social mobile gaming," said Randy Breen, CEO of SGN. "SGN is determined to continue to push the boundaries of social mobile innovation and to offer interactive and engaging game-play to the world on iPhone or iPod touch."
Skies of Glory -- Battle of Britain offers exhilarating features, enables lightning fast multiplayer game play with up to eight opponents over 3G, WiFi and Bluetooth connections and includes a challenging multiplayer game mode, "Defend The Base," that requires a greater level of team play and strategic cooperation.
In this app players have the ability to battle with other virtual fighter pilots across the world in the first historic campaign that was fought entirely in the air. This campaign immerses players in stimulating missions that follow the battle over England during the Second World War with 3-D flight simulation and accelerometer-based flight controls. To keep pilots on their toes, there are three phases of conflict within the campaign that follow the battle over England, starting after France surrendered to Germany in the summer of 1940. These include: Phase One -- Kanalkampf ("Channel Battles"), Phase Two -- Adlerangriff ("Eagle Attack") and Phase Three -- Blitzkrieg ("Lightning War"). In addition, as the Battle of Britain is the most sustained aerial bombing campaign in history, three versatile bombers have been added to the game: the British Mosquito, the Russian Yakolev, and the P-38 from the U.S. The game also supports a jukebox so that players can listen to their favorite music during battles.
The SGN's Skies of Glory -- Battle of Britain App is available for download for $6.99 from the App Store on the iPhone and iPod touch at http://www.itunes.com/appstore.
