Iron Maiden Creates A Free-To-Play Mobile RPG

Heavy metal and gaming has always sort of gone together – at least among the folks I’ve gamed with through the years – and a recent game announcement concerning the band Iron Maiden seems to strengthen that assumed bond. According to this teaser website, Iron Maiden has given the ok to use their name and mascot in an upcoming free-to-play mobile RPG called Legacy of the Beast.

    Battle as Eddie in his many guises across worlds inspired by the rich lore and music of Iron Maiden – one of the most iconic and influential bands of all time.
    A mysterious force has shattered Eddie’s soul and scattered the shards. Travel through time and space collecting the pieces as you encounter a cast of dramatic and engaging characters.
    A powerful soundtrack enhances gameplay, using songs spanning Iron Maiden’s entire career, including previously unheard live recordings adapted for the game by engineer Tony Newton under the close scrutiny of Steve Harris.

As you can imagine, there aren’t many more details to go on. All that is known is that the company behind Warhammer 40,000: Carnage, Roadhouse interactive, is behind its development. We’ll keep you posted as more information emerges.
