Gameloft reveals Uncharted-esque Shadow Guardian for iPhone and iPad
Well-charted territory
Okay, so we're making a small leap comparing Shadow Guardian with Naughty Dog's Uncharted without actually playing it, but Gameloft has carved a fine furrow paying 'homage' to popular console franchises and this one looks true to form.
The debut trailer and screenshots, released earlier today, promise ruins, shootouts, and improbable feats of gymnastic ability.
Expect a mix of Uncharted-esque climbing and Uncharted-esque gunplay, punctuated by cut-scenes in which a plot involving ancient relics and archeological horrors slowly unfolds. Like in Uncharted.
'Homage' or not, it looks beautiful, and there's a good chance it'll be a corker. No price or firm release date have been announced. Gameloft promises more information in the coming weeks.
