Gameloft wowed early iPhone adopters with Brothers in Arms: Hour of Heroes, one of the first App Store releases to demonstrate the platform’s strengths in the third-person shooter genre. Today, Gameloft releases the long-awaited sequel, Brothers in Arms 2: Global Front ($7.99).

In addition to offering an all-new single player campaign, Brothers in Arms 2 adds a new multiplayer mode that allows up to six players at a time to compete over a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection. The game includes five multiplayer maps and three gameplay modes — Free For All, Team Deathmatch, and Domination.

Gameloft has also bolstered gameplay variety with a selection of controllable vehicles. At points in the single-player campaign, players can take control of a tank, an off-road vehicle, and a glider. A gameplay trailer is below.
