Tap Tap Rush - New Astro Boy Game for iPhone!

Now this is some huge news!

A new Astro Boy video game is set for release on the iPhone. This is a colaboration between Tezuka Productions, Widefos, and SJgames. It's a side scrolling action game that seems akin in many ways to the GameBoy Advance classic Astro Boy Omega Factor. It has a unique art style and looks to feature battles with both Atlas and Pluto. Other famous characters like Dr. Ochanomizu and Inspector Tawashi also make an appearance. 

Check out some gameplay footage below!



The game is set for release in 2011 for what will be the 60th anniversary of Astro Boy. It is be available in Korea and Japan first, but other regions including North America and Europe will follow. Stay tuned to ABW for more information on this exciting new game as it develops.

  2. Yeah the Tezuka manga and now Astro Boy games make me really want one (but not spending for one).

    Anyone know how good the one from last year is? It seems to be based on the 2003 anime, and I guess it took the release of a movie to see an English translation.
