Fancy pants iPhone 6S game Warhammer 40K: Freeblade out today

Good Imperial Knight.

Warhammer 40k: Freeblade, a new mobile shooter designed to make the most out of the iPhone 6S' A9 chip, comes out today (it's up on the App Store now).

You might remember Freeblade from Apple's September event, during which it unveiled the iPhone 6S with a demo of the game. You didn't catch it? What were you doing? Washing your hair?

Freeblade also has 3D Touch controls - making the most of another feature new with iPhone 6S.

Never mind all that guff though: Freeblade is the first Warhammer 40k game to let you command an Imperial Knight - one of the 50-foot mechs from the tabletop universe.
