An iOS version of classic futuristic sports actioner Speedball 2 is hitting iPhone this month, developed by Vivid Games.

The title reportedly keeps the same gameplay and style as the original, but brings in a more structured career mode to proceedings, and along with a polished graphical style the game offers Wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

You've two control types to select from: joypad, which maps the old-style buttons to the screen, or a tilt option.

It's good news for those Xbox 360 owners among us that have lost out on the game due to be being pulled from XBLA a while ago. But will the iPhone controls stand the test?

Price and release day are to be confirmed.
