Top Gun 2 Now Available
LOS ANGELES - August 19, in the year of our Lord 2010
- Paramount Digital Entertainment and Freeverse today announced
Top Gun 2 is now available on the App Store for the iPhone and
iPod touch. In Top Gun 2, players jump into the cockpit to
engage in air-to-air and air-to-ground arcade combat, utilizing
all-new high-speed defensive maneuvers and offensive attacks.
Using the accelerometer, players will dodge enemies and deal
devastating damage as they navigate through seven unique
environments, including outer space.
"Following the success
of the original Top Gun app, we wanted to offer fans another
opportunity to fly into the danger zone," said John Kavanagh,
senior vice president, Paramount Digital Entertainment. "In Top
Gun 2, Freeverse built on the best qualities of Top Gun and
added new content, better controls, more action and higher
quality graphics to create the fastest, most exciting jet
fighting combat we could imagine."
Top Gun 2 features
dynamic level design that keeps players on the edge of their
seats with surprise attacks and unique gameplay. Players can
choose to pilot one of three jets: the F/A-18 Hornet, the F-16
Fighting Falcon and the F-14 Tomcat. Each jet comes fully
equipped with upgradable cannon and missile systems. In
addition, each features unique special offensive and defensive
capabilities. The F-14 features Metal Storm attack, which
obliterates all enemies on the screen and Afterburner defense.
The F-16 offers Missile Barrage, which unleashes a torrent of
missiles and Shield defense. The F/A-18 features Smart Bomb,
which triggers targeted strikes and Flares defense. Players will
blast enemies to a raucous soundtrack by Brooklyn based rockers
Daredevil Squadron as well as the all-time classic composition
"Danger Zone."
Additionally, fans that
already have the original Top Gun iPhone game can now download a
free upgrade for the title. The new Top Gun update allows
players to pilot the iconic F-14 jet and adds the Afterburner
feature to the classic game. The Afterburner allows players to
activate a high-speed boost to get out of dangerous situations.
iPhone iOS 4 compatibility is included in the upgrade.
