Following its successful release for iOS in March - gaining a Pocket Game Silver award in the process - the reimagining of classic futuristic sports game Speedball is now available on Ovi Store.

Developed by Vivid Games, in conjunction with Jon Hare's Tower Studios, the Symbian version of Speedball 2 Evolution has been designed for Nokia's Symbian^3 smartphones such as the N8.

Fully featured

As well as the Quick Play, League and Cup modes, the meat of the game is the 10 season Career mode. This features the Speedball Champions League and a player transfer market with over 300 upgradable and transferable players.

"The ongoing success of Speedball 2 Evolution on every format we publish it on is stunning. It is, without doubt, the best remake of any classic title currently available for smartphones" says Jon Hare, the game's creative director and Tower Studios' CEO.

"To existing fans this is a classic remake, to the new generation of players this really is just a fantastic new game."

Speedball 2 Evolution is available now on Ovi Store, priced £3 or local equivalent.
