Infinity Blade expected to ship Dec 9

Be happy, iGamers, as the Unreal engine-driven much-anticipated Infinity Blade game is rumored to be set to ship on December 9.

If you’ve been watching you’ll know this is the game Apple showed us during a keynote presentation with Epic Games folks invited to share stage time with Jobs. And the audience oohed and ahhed at those hot, hot graphics.

Developer Chair Entertainment’s Donald Mustard says Jobs was amazed when he saw the game, “He just said, ‘I can’t believe this is on one of our devices,’?” Mustard recalled Jobs saying. After seeing the iPhone game, another Apple executive uttered, “This changes everything.”

For an idea of the graphical lushness to look forward too here, take a look at the free Epic Citadel title at the App Store.
