Stephan Sherman, the co-founder and CCO of Super Evil Megacorp, made an appearance during the Apple iPhone 6 event to speak about his company’s plans to bring their new game onto the device. This mobile title is a MOBA titled Vainglory, a game that will make good use of the iPhone 6’s new capabilities and refined touch controls.
The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will both be powered by an A8 chip, which has been developed by Apple. The A8 chip will contain up to 25-percent faster processing power and produce even better looking graphics.
