Word's on the street that game publisher Gameloft is gearing up to launch the popular first person shooter title - "Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour" - for Windows Phone 8 in April.
The FPS arrived on Android and iOS devices in December 2012 and come April, will be available for Windows Phone 8 as well. "Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour" is based on the Havok physics engine and has real-time shadows, as well as multiplayer capabilities.
According to WinPhoneLive.Ru, a Gameloft manager is the source of the release information and has confirmed the availability of the impending mobile game.
"As we know from the manager of the company, Gameloft is preparing to exit the world of action-game Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour, which is scheduled for release in April," reports the website (translated).
However, the manager did not disclose a specific release date. The manager also revealed that there were issues with the PEGI certification in Russia.
"We are now actively working on the release of games for the Xbox and Windows Phone in Russia with the required rating. We know that the Russian players are looking forward to games from Gameloft on their Windows Phones and we are extremely pleased that our games are as expected, so we make every effort to timely exit games in Russia," revealed a Gameloft manager per the website (translated).
"Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour" is expected to cost $6.99 in the Windows Phone store.
"Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour has a high-quality 3D-graphics, so is unlikely to run on devices with 512 MB of RAM. The approximate cost of the game in stores Windows Phone - $6.99," notes WinPhoneLive (translated).
What's more, according to a WMPoweruser report, the game will "be WP8 exclusive."
With April almost upon us, we'll have to wait and see if either Gameloft or Microsoft spill the beans soon.
