As revealed in a recent article from The Hollywood Reporter, Reality Pump and Topware will develop Iron Sky Invasion, a new game based on sci-fi comedy film Iron Sky. In the game players will choose to either join forces with a colony of moon Nazis invading Earth, or fight against them as one of Earth's defenders.

The game will follow the pulp fiction plot of the film, in which a colony of Nazis living on the dark side of the moon begin an invasion of the earth. Players will act as a space pilot in the intergalactic battle, joining forces with either the Nazi invaders or earth's defense force. The Polish studio Reality Pump will develop the game for Topware. Samuli Torssonen, visual effects supervisor on the film, will provide visual effects for the game through his Helsinki-based Troll studio.

Iron Sky Invasion will be available for Mac, PC, XBox 360 and PlayStation 3 and Topware said it plans to release both a standard edition for around €40 - €50 ($50 - $62) and a special "Gotterdammerung" edition for between €60 - €70 ($74 - $86).

I liked the movie! Although for the subject matter I more like a FPS like Wolfenstein or the upcoming ROTT (RIse of The Triad) instead... although I will probably give this a try when it comes out. Nice to see they have already announced Mac support. When I saw this headline I thought to myself "This couldn't be based on that movie could it?"  :cool:

If A list movies generally get B list games. Will a B list movie produce an A list game?

I found the movie slightly disappointing. The should have focused on the idea of Moon Nazis instead of shoehorning some wanna-be Dr Strangelove-esque political satire in it. I don't see this happening in the game, though, so that might be fun.

I actually liked the political satire in it and I'm not a fan of political stuff most of the time. Also this movie was head and shoulders above their previous effort... Star Trek The Pirkinning which was I would say a C grade Star Trek fan film. Also I thought it was funny how they did their own take on the Hitler scene that had been turned into a youtube meme.
I still would like a Wolfenstein\Singularity style game where one infiltrates the moon nazi base and shoots the nazis with Space MP40s. Then you can go outside and pilot a flying saucer and cause mayhem with that.  :lol:

Also I enjoy B movies for what they are.  :cool:
