The Iron Maiden Video Game is Here, Free

Terrific news, gang: you now have a way to procrastinate besides reading silly metal blogs. ‘Cause Iron Maiden have launched their new mobile video game, Legacy of the Beast… and it’s free to play! YAY FREE BULLSHIT!

As we first reported back in February, the RPG “casts the player as Eddie, Maiden’s psychotic zombie mascot,” and involves a “story [that] takes place throughout various moments in the history of both mankind and the band itself, pitting Eddie against a series of characters from Maiden’s artwork and songs and giving him all manner of weapons and powers derived from the band’s music and history.”

I will be playing it the moment I am done writing this post.

My fellow iOSers, get the game here. Androidies, get it here. Have a blast.
