Flower Mound, TEXAS - November 21, in the year of our
Lord 2011 - FUNimation Entertainment announced today
the launch of the highly anticipated iPhone game based on the
acclaimed anime series "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood."
Developed by Good Game Productions, Fullmetal Battle is a
turn-based Online Collectable Card Game with an immediately
recognizable RPG style of combat and is available now for the
iPhone and iPod Touch and will be followed shortly by the iPad.

Fullmetal Battle is a free to play turn-based Collectable Card
Game that lets players design their own state licensed alchemist
decks from a variety of abilities and effects inspired by the
"Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood" series and proceed into
battle against other online players. Immersed in a fictional
universe styled after the European Industrial Revolution,
players can also challenge popular Full Metal Alchemist:
Brotherhood characters including fan-favorites Alphonse and
Edward Elric while receiving helpful tips from Roy Mustang!
Fullmetal Battle is a title that blends elements of the standard
Online Collectable Card Game and freemium aspects of a
free-to-play MMO. Each card the player owns can gain experience,
eventually gaining levels and new abilities. Players are
encouraged to purchase additional packs of playing cards and
eventually trade them with other players.
"Fullmetal Alchemist" is one of our top hits and therefore is a
great candidate for brand expansion. We are proud to partner
with Good Game Productions so that we may include the "Fullmetal
Battle" Mobile App into our catalog, "said Gen Fukunaga CEO of
FUNimation Entertainment.
The player's team of state alchemists band together in three vs.
three combat, with unique access to special potions and
single-use items, players have the opportunity to upgrade their
core Alchemy transmutation circles and actions that are central
to the game. With complete integration to Facebook, players have
the ability to fight their online friends and eventually form
teams of state based Alchemists!
