Briefly: First releasing on the Xbox 360 all the way back in 2010, Limbo is finally set to hit your mobile devices.
Developer Playdead today announced that Limbo will release on iOS devices on July 3rd for a cool $4.99. The app will be universal, meaning that one purchase will cover both the iPad and iPhone/iPod version of the game. I sure hope cloud save support also makes it into the title.
If you haven’t yet experienced Limbo, the game is a fantastic experience for any platformer fan. I’m interested to see how it made the transition to touchscreen, but I’d expect the title to play just as smoothly as its console/pc counterpart.
Watch the trailer for Limbo below, and let us know if you’ll be picking up the mobile edition!
