In Celebration Of Its 10th Anniversary, Sky Force Lands On iOS With New Features
As we reported late last year, Infinite Dreams had been developing a new iOS edition of Sky Force in celebration of the vertical shooter's 10th anniversary. Now, a decade after its launch on the Symbian platform, the game has been reborn on iOS as Sky Force 2014.
Of course, the game has also been remastered for the newer, decidedly more advanced platform it now inhabits. For one thing, Sky Force 2014 boasts high-resolution 3-D graphics. What's more, it features touch-optimized controls, a new upgrade system, and a new social gaming layer.
Sky Force 2014 also challenges you to weekly tournaments where you can take on other players, with prizes rewarded not only for winning, but also for rescuing your fallen opponents.

Sky Force 2014 is not the first appearance of Sky Force on iOS. Actually, not one, but two Sky Force titles – Sky Force and Sky Force Reloaded – were launched on iOS a few years ago. But they were later pulled by Infinite Dreams from the App Store because of incompatibility issues with newer versions of iOS.
