Mutant Bash TV Is Id Software’s First Rage Game For iOS

Having seen the phenomenal Infinity Blade, I’m not impressed by the much simpler Mutant Bash TV – the first game that will use the Rage engine for iOS. The graphics, however, are extraordinary, as you’d expect from id software.

Sadly, instead of being free exploring game like Infinity Blade, Mutant Bash TV runs on rails, using tilting to control aim and buttons to dodge, fire, reload or switch weapons. But fear not: Mutant Bash TV is just a small $1.19 game coming this November. Apparently, id is preparing a full game using the same engine for next year. [Touch Arcade]

    John Carmack and ID software constantly push the boundaries of what’s possible in FPS games and are arguably the masters of this genre. I certainly will be lining up for this game.

      Don’t hold your breath. I think it will take the introduction of the much anticipated PSP-Phone for Android gaming to take off.

      As for Mutant Bash TV on iOS, it looks like fun and I’ll no doubt buy it, but I’m much more interested in seeing a proper FPS game from ID rather than another shooter on rails.

        i think not long ago it was announced that id was looking for a skilled coder for android ports so i think it might be sooner than you think
