Guide Note

This page contains release date information for the game, Iron Man. The release date for Iron Man is May 2nd 2008 to coincide with the release of the film in cinemas.

Iron Man is an action game based on the 2008 movie of the same title starring Robert Downey Jr. and Terrence Howard. In the game, you will play as billionaire industrialist and playboy Tony Stark who spends millions of dollars on a suit of armor that turns him into his Iron Man persona. With his suit, he gains the ability to fly, blast repulsor rays, and hurl ICBM missiles with ease.

The weapons Iron Man was able to use in the demo were fairly generic... standard tanks, SAMs (surface-to-air missiles), and anti-air guns. His main weapons will be repulsor rays, shot either from his palms or from a node on his chest. Repulsor rays from the node on his chest are more powerful than those from his hands, but will drain more energy. He also has the ability to grab incoming missiles and redirect them back to the launcher that shot them. Iron Man's "hover" and "fly" abilities are separate. While hovering, he drifts from side to side, enabling easier firing of repulsor rays. Two different flying speeds are available: normal and super. Using super-speed offers less maneuverability.
