The epic battle to create the largest immortal empire has finally arrived on the iPhone. Zynga (www.zynga.com), the largest developer of social games, today announced the launch of Vampires: Bloodlust, a mobile version of its popular fantasy game – exclusively for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Vampire Wars is a proven commodity on social networks with over three million active users per month across social networks like Facebook and MySpace.

Vampires: Bloodlust features an all new contemporary gothic art style that includes new artwork, music and sound effects. Enhancing the experience through art and design, the game features intense audio tied into every mission and action that players make. Immortal empires are built with blood, health, stamina, and rage, and equipped with attack, defense and movement abilities to fight with other clans in the game. Players can also track their friends’ progress through a ranking ladder and real-time newsfeed that is sure to trigger the thirst for blood.
