At WWDC, Apple mentioned that it had been working closely with developers to design a new type of gaming for the platform: creating an iOS 7 game controller. While many had forgotten about the announcement months ago, ClamCase has been hard at work to develop what looks to be the first iOS 7 game controller unveiled. The company behind some pretty nice iPad keyboards has shown off its very own GameCase game controller for iOS devices.
Their website mentions that it will be available for iPhone 4S and later, although the current design shown off today shows a controller built for and around an iPad mini, which could make for a pretty cool gaming experience (especially if Apple adds a Retina display in the iPad mini 2!). The GameCase will work through Bluetooth and will have its own battery source, which means that it should allow for some solid gaming. The controller also has dual analog sticks, a directional pad, and four buttons on the back of the controller.
While this certainly won’t be the last game controller we see coming to iOS, it is the first, and it sure does look pretty sweet. Unfortunately, ClamCase has not announced any availability information on the device yet. Head on over to the source link to see more pictures, and check out the video embedded above!
Do you plan on buying a controller for your iOS device, or do you prefer on-screen controls for your iOS gaming?
