ROME: Total War coming to iPhone this Winter

Feral Interactive today announced that the acclaimed historical strategy game ROME: Total War will be coming to iPhone this winter. Originally developed by Creative Assembly for Windows PC and brought to iOS by Feral Interactive, the epic ROME: Total Warwas previously released on iPad only.

ROME: Total War seamlessly blends conquest and politics on a massive scale as it challenges players to build and rule the ancient world’s greatest empire over three hundred years, from the late Roman Republic to the early Roman Empire. Players will deploy strategy and tactics in spectacular real-time battles, and use diplomacy, subterfuge and assassination to smooth the path to ultimate victory in huge turn-based campaigns.

Just as for the iPad, ROME: Total War on iPhone will be the full experience, with a suite of features designed specifically for phone, from a redesigned user interface to enhanced touch controls.

“Bringing such a mighty strategy game to the iPhone has been an immense undertaking, but we are very proud of the way this grandest of campaigns performs on smaller screens,” said David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral Interactive. “We are very excited to be bringing ROME: Total War to iPhone… before the Ides of March.”

ROME: Total War for iPhone will be available from the App Store for $9.99/£9.99/€10.99.

System requirements and other information will be announced closer to the release date.
