Feral Interactive has announced that it is porting the strategy game Rome: Total War – Alexander from Windows to the iPad sometime this summer. The iPad version of the original Rome: Total War – Alexander game is already available, alongside Barbarian Invasion …

The Windows version was developed by Creative Assembly some 15 years ago, and became one of the most successful PC games of all time. Alexander is set a century before its predecessor.

Feral says that the iPad version is a full implementation of the game, optimised for the platform.

The game will cost $4.99, with no in-app purchases. You don’t need to have the earlier game installed. The exact iPad spec needed to run the latest game will be announced nearer the time.

Rome – Total War and Barbarian Invasion are currently available for purchase from the App Store at $9.99 and $4.99 respectively.
