First spied in development seven months ago, Icebreaker will arrive on the iTunes App Store next week as a hockey-style complement to Backbreaker, the football title whose “Tackle Alley” minigame saw tremendous success as an iPhone port.
NaturalMotion Games, the developer of the football cult fave Backbreaker, is now working on an ice hockey game apparently titled “Icebreaker,” according to a video profile by the BBC.
