Last week, Gameloft, the mobile gaming company that's made its name by developing iOS imitations of some of the most popular console-based titles on the market, published a short teaser on their YouTube channel for a mysterious new game.
After a week of letting gamers stew, Gameloft posted a more revealing follow-up, unveiling the game's full title, "Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden." Just as the gaming community speculated, it looks like Gameloft is still doing what it does best. This time, it seems a Zelda-style adventure is headed to the App Store, complete with luscious environments, grandiose bosses, and frustrating puzzles. If you're a Legend of Zelda fan, this may be as close as it gets to the real thing, since Nintendo is known for keeping a tight leash on their power franchises. Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden is scheduled to make its App Store debut sometime next month, and if the new trailer is any indication, it'll likely be worth the relatively short wait.
