With Gameloft launching games left and right, and doing quite well on the App Store as of late, iPad support, through universal apps, should be a no brainer these days. According to Touch Arcade, the practice of releasing an iPad version of a game for a higher price and at a later date may soon draw to an end.
Touch Arcade further reports: "Gameloft PR Manager Gregory Wintgens stated that from here on out the iOS mega-developer plans to 'release everything as Universal' rather than the long standing practice of having separate versions for iPhone/iPod touch and the iPad."
This is great news for iPad owners and shows that the tablet is gaining popularity among gamers. You may have noticed as of late Gameloft has already been fulfilling this goal when games like "Order & Chaos Online," "Silent Ops" and "9mm" all launched as universal apps.
Gameloft is known for bringing console-like experiences to the App Store. What would also be nice is if they included iPad support in some of their past games on the App Store like "Castle of Magic."
