Watchmen: Justice is Coming iPhone superhero MMORPG only 99 cents at launch

Warner Brothers Digital Distribution has released the Watchmen: Justice is Coming online multiplayer game for the iPhone and iPod touch.

A multiplayer game based on the Watchmen movie, Watchmen: Justice is Coming is being offered at a special introductory price of $0.99.

Watchmen: Justice is Coming uses “cloudMMO,” a cloud based multiplayer technology that leverages Amazon.com Web Services allowing players to adventure through the world of Watchmen. Players experience an ever-changing gaming environment, chat with other players and participate in street battles.

In Watchmen: Justice is Coming, players bring their own unique form of justice to New York City in the 1970s before the film’s central story unfolds. Masked adventuring has been outlawed. During this critical time period, crime is rampant and average citizens must take matters into their own hands to survive.

Players create their personal avatar and enter the rain-soaked city of Manhattan. The dark metropolitan world is a vast network of interlocking and overlapping spaces that include: the seedy and saturated neon Red Light District; a run down Financial District and its dark waterfront; the downtown back-alleys of Lower Manhattan; a wide open City Park; and more.

You can currently get Watchmen: Justice is Coming for iPhone from the AppStore for 99 cents, but the price will be raised soon (although we’re not sure when exactly this will happen).
