Avenged Sevenfold have unveiled a new mobile game, titled Hail to the King: Deathbat which is available now on IOS and Android.
Described as a cross between The Legend of Zelda, Gauntlet Legends and Diablo, the dungeon based role-playing game is themed around the band's signature artwork and musical back catalogue, and even features new music from the group and band members available as playable characters.
According to the app's page on the iTunes store, the game is based around Andronikos, a resurrected King of the Underworld and based in the lands of Haides, featuring seven levels built around the band's discography.
Announcing the game on their Facebook page, the band themselves described their reasoning behind the app: "After watching all of the members of this band play mobile games on tour over the years we decided to create one of our own. A game for our fans who love games as well."
"We decided to create this adventure with a nod to our favorite games growing up. No hand holding here, no fluff, just a hard, bad ass game that lets you discover the story of the Deathbat."

The app is available to download now for £2.99, it is currently unknown as to whether the new material featured on the game will be released in the future.
