    Unedited press release:
    We are proud to announce that the dedicated team here at Playdead has now completed LIMBO for the iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch.

    The release of LIMBO into its largest market to date, follows the news that LIMBO has already sold over 3 million copies across Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Steam, Mac App Store and Playstation Vita.

    We have worked very hard to bring LIMBO to as many devices as possible; rethinking the controls and performing extensive optimizations to ensure an amazing touch-based experience across iPad 2 (and higher), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (and higher) and the latest generation of iPod Touch.

    LIMBO will be available worldwide on the App Store Wednesday, July 3rd, in your timezone, at $4.99.

    This actually appears to be real. Well this really came without warning!

    This past month has been amazing for iOS, this is really continuing that pattern! Just imagine, this with the upcoming liscenced controller. That will be a dream.

    Wait wait wait the real limbo?

    Wow those last few weeks have been insane and now this next week... I'm gonna enjoy playing it a second time, that beautiful artstyle should be right at home on a retina screen (I really hope it's full retina on the ipad 3/4)!

    Yup. I added more links in the OP. This is genuine. The real XBLA/PSN Limbo is coming to IOS. Finally! We don't have to put up with crappy clones and rip offs anymore (cough cough Oddplanet)

    There is already a thread in the general section. Plus in the games section you can see all the new games coming out as they have NZ in the title

    It's a really great game and controls on iOS shouldn't be a real problem with this plateformer.

    This is unbelievable :D

    I heard playdeadgames was looking 4 people to help port it at least a year ago

    That means they've put a lot of time in and this should be perfect for ios

    I am really looking forward to play it but I wonder HOW did they "handled" controls specifically for iOS devices because one thing I don't like to see is a platformer with virtual joystick...

    This.

    Limbo is all about screwing you over in creative and cruel ways, it requires some fairly particular controls.

    I'm not sure how it will work, but if bastion can do it successfully, I have hopes that Limbo can too.
