After trying to reverse engineer details of Infinity Blade's gameplay from the release of the first video footage, Chair Entertainment has released the first official details about the game.

The overall story arc concerns your journey to defeat the sinister God-King and his brutish Titans.

Based around what's described as "basic swiping commands", your character moves involves swordplay, dodges and casting spells. These can be offensive or restore health or shield strength.

The other movement is how you explore the castle realm, which is described as via easy to use and tap-to-move controls.

Levelling up

As the game is an RPG, your character upgrades skills, builds up his stats, collects looted items (swords, shields, armour etc), and unlocks achievements to earn more powerful items. Stats include attributes such as strength, speed, protection and magic.

Future updates to Infinity Blade will add support for Game Center, which via its multiplayer mode enables you to challenge friends and foes, and unlock achievements, as well as adding new weapons, environments and enemy bosses.
