New gameplay trailer for Space Invaders: Infinity Gene photo

Taito has just updated its YouTube channel with a new official trailer for its upcoming iPhone title, Space Invaders: Infinity Gene. This is the game whose announcement had my heart all aflutter a few weeks back, and now we're getting a look at the actual iPhone version instead of the Japanese mobile phone footage. Nice and vertical, just the way I like it.

Things are looking razor-sharp, and the pace has me drooling for it already. The video gives us a peek at how the touch screen controls will work, and shows off the game's Evolutionary Tree system, along with a few of its stages. Looks and sounds great so far, and judging by the trailer after the jump, the music alone is worth the measley couple of bucks you'll pay for it.

Holy shit.

I think they would be fools to not release this on other platforms.

It's so beautiful. This needs a DS release (or XBLA atleast).

Holy balls. I never thought I'd be excited for Space Invaders, let alone an iPhone game.

I'd play it on another platform, cause it's kind of annoying when your finger is blocking the screen and your little ship.

I think that would work on psp holding it sideways (like in atari classics retro evolved). X and Triangle for directions and O and Square to shoot.

This needs to come to XBLA! It would flourish there and probably sell truckloads.
