Fruit Ninja Celebrates 5th Anniversary
August 6, in the year of our Lord 2015 --
Are YOU one of those people who take pleasure in poleaxing
pineapples? What about wasting watermelons, annihilating apples,
punishing peaches or obliterating oranges? Do you get a sense of
satisfaction from shredding strawberries? Killing kiwifruits
with a katana? Butchering bananas with a blade? Or maybe, just
maybe, you enjoy TOTALLY PWNING pomegranates?
If so, it’s time to sharpen them swords, grasshopper… Fruit
Ninja not only just clocked ONE BILLION downloads, we also
turned 5! And that means a brand-spanking, blade-slashing, new
gore-tacular splatter-fest of an update.
Dropping today on the App Store, Google Play and Amazon Appstore
for Android, the new Fruit Ninja update is FREE for new and
existing players. It’s been a fun and fruitful five years, so
this is Halfbrick's way of saying “Arigatō!”
Whether you’re a casual fruit-slaying commuter or a dedicated
smartphone shinobi, the new and improved Fruit Ninja is going to
rock your socks off (while no doubt infuriating grocers and
sending fruitaphobes quivering into the foetal position).
Halfbrick CEO Shainiel Deo is likewise pumped about what this
all means. “The latest update of Fruit Ninja is really a new
chapter for the game and for Halfbrick,” he said. “We are
grateful for the success it’s brought, but we’re also excited by
the evolution of the game… and it all starts here.”
So what’s new exactly? Well, this is a whole new competitive era
for Fruit Ninja, so things are about to heat up…
