Broken Sword for iPad released

Director's Cut HD for five quid.

The iPad version of Revolution Software's Broken Sword: Director's Cut HD has just gone live on the iTunes App Store.

The app costs £4.99 from the UK version of the store and you can grab it through these handsome blue words.

The 558MB download is your gateway to a sexy higher-resolution version of the classic adventure game, in which Nico Collard travels to Paris and finds herself drawn into conspiracy.

"This really is the definitive version," Revolution's Charles Cecil said in a statement. "Rather than rush the game out for the US launch, we have taken the time to get it just right, and with the higher resolution graphics, and the addition of the digital comic as a bonus feature, there's a lot of new content to enjoy."

Broken Sword: Director's Cut was released for iPhone and iPod Touch in February and is still available for £2.99. It's a 353MB download.

The iPad itself is out now in the US and is available internationally on 28th May. Check out Digital Foundry's iPad hardware test for more on whether it's worth four zillion quid or whatever.
