this is sean hollister with the verge and you're taking a look at the first moments of infinity blade to a game due on iOS on December first it's a hack and slash adventure the sequel to the original infinity blade and picks up right where it left off it's developed by chair entertainment published by epic games and is built on Unreal Engine 3 and as you can take a look right here we're in a Japanese garden with cherry blossom is falling from tree using beautiful light streaming through running it on an iPad 2 and an iphone 4s simultaneously two different copies of the game a chair entertainment says both will run at a locked 30 frames per second frame rate as far as gameplay is concerned Infinity Blade 2 is a lot like its predecessor you're armed with variety of malaya weapons typical swords you attack block ferry and use magic and special attacks the objective generally been to break the guard of your opponent and while they're stunned defeat them in a variety of nasty melee waves the difference is here or that the enemies have a lot more moves at their disposal typically and it's a little bit harder to tell what kind of attacks they'll throw out and you to have a few new moves and a couple of new weapon types of your disposal instead of your standard sword or shield you can dual-wield a pair of blaze what they have a large axe or club for a heavy meal I weapon infinity blade tues worlds is beautiful even if your job is to slay it's more dastardly denizens we particularly enjoyed the level of detail here with particle effects like individual cherry blossoms falling from trees or you take a look below this bridge the koi swimming around at the pond it's a bit of a toss-up between the ipad 2 and iPhone 4s an iPad it's easier to make up a little details but on iphone there are fewer visible jagged edges we're not going to spoil any of the plot of infinity blade yes there is some story this time around but we do think to be valuable to show you the game's first boss minute because this is where gameplay and graphics really come together have a look this is what I will leave you to it thank you for watching
