'Pacific Rim' inspires mobile game

Hollywood sci-fi film "Pacific Rim" has inspired the launch of a mobile game, which asks gamers to pilot a giant Jaeger robot and defend Earth from invading aliens.

The game, surrounding the movie, is developed by Reliance Games, the mobile gaming division of Reliance Entertainment Digital, in partnership with Behavior Interactive.

"We are excited to provide an enhanced and immersive experience to moviegoers with a state-of-the-art 3D mobile game," Manish Agarwal, CEO, Reliance Entertainment Digital, said in a statement.

Available on iOS and Android, the game features epic battles amidst skyscrapers as players swipe and tap to defeat the Kaijus, aliens that have risen from the sea to wipe out humanity.

To aid in the apocalyptic fight to save humanity, new weapons, technology and devastating combos can be unlocked during the course of the game.

In the game's Story Mode, the gamer can play over 30 levels and challenge monstrous creatures in intense combat based on the motion picture. In the Survival Mode, you can test your skills with a customized Jaeger.

"Pacific Rim", which released July 12, is directed by Guillermo Del Toro.
