New Call of Duty strikes iOS platforms today

Surprise! A brand new Call of Duty, called Strike Team, is now available on iOS. And you might be interested in this one even if you’re not a fan of Activision’s long running franchise. Update- now with 100% more trailer

The game is a first for the franchise as it features a full-fledged, overhead view where you can command your squad as opposed to being in the middle of the firefight. Not that first-person shooting isn’t a big part of the title, as you can switch to classic FPS gameplay at any time.

Set in the near-future time period of 2020, the US is at war with an unknown enemy. As a member of the Joint Special Operations Team it’s your job to take the fight to the bad guys and find out who’s waging a secret war on the States.

Strike Team offers the campaign mode (which is almost two modes if you take both play style into account) and also has a Survival Mode where you’ll fight off waves of enemies in a battle of attrition. So kind of like a Horde Mode there I guess.

Call of Duty: Strike Team is a 1.3gig download and is compatible with the iPhone 5, iPod Touch’s later than fourth gen and iPad. The game will cost you $6.99 USD and also offers in-app purchases.
