XS Games announced today that The Red Star, a game based on Christian Gossett’s graphic novel of the same name, has hit the Apple App Store for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The Red Star, previously released on the PlayStation 2 and the PSP go, brings intense gunplay and action brawling to the mobile platform. Red Star takes place in an alternate universe in a land known as the United Republics of the Red Star (URRS), a place fairly close to our own cold war USSR. The URRS keep control of their lands through the use of a technologically advanced army, that is bolstered in strength by the use of sorcerers and magic. Players will be able to play as one of two characters from the graphic novel at first, and can unlock a third through game play. The Red Star is available from Apple’s App Store for the iPhone for $4.99
