Obviously looking at the banner it is available for the Xperia Play where available, but the fact that they’ve released it but only on so few devices just doesn’t make sense. You can get it now by going to Gameloft’s website, or the WAP Site on your mobile device. It is not available in the Android Market just like most Gameloft games are not. I tried for the MyTouch 4G and it was available, but not for a new phone like the Incredible 2, both sporting newer generation Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU’s. So what limits or bars are being enforced for downloads I still don’t fully know.
I didn’t expect it to be available for my Xoom or the G2x as they are possibly building a Tegra THD version, but for those that have a newer Android device and would like to get the latest and greatest from Gameloft it is now available but like mentioned, only from the Gameloft site. Still releasing some games to the market, and most only on their own site.
Part of the reason behind this is to control who downloads their games, and for what device. It could also be the 50MB app size limit enforced by the Android Market. Announced today that is increasing to 4GB, and dev’s can blacklist incompatible devices so hopefully these issues with Gameloft games will soon be a thing of the past. For now check out the video and press release below:
