Original Shining Force due on App Store this Thursday
Sega is in the process of bringing tons of classic games to the iPhone like Ecco the Dolphin and Golden Axe. This week, old school tactical role-playing game Shining Force joins the lineup.
TouchArcade reports that this iteration of Shining force is a port of the original Genesis version that came out in the early 90s (‘92 or ‘93 depending on who you ask in which country). The series has evolved a great deal since then, ditching turn-based tactical battles occasionally for dungeon crawler or action RPG gameplay.
No price information is available yet, but Ecco the Dolphin costs $2.99, so that’s probably in the ballpark. Look for it on the App Store this Thursday.
