"Left Behind: Eternal Forces" is a Christian-themed game that will feature in-game links which allow players to buy songs from Apple's online shop.
At least this is the word from the developer of the game for its upcoming real-time strategy game, Left Behind: Eternal Forces. The game will start shipping in October.
The story of the game centers around those who were left behind after the good-versus-evil battle took place. The new feature it will serve up in-games and when the gamer will click on the link that appears on the screen, this will automaticly pause the game action and will take the player to the iTunes store, where the player will be able to download the song playing at the time the link appeared.
"We believe consumers want choices and prefer interactive advertising, rather than interruptive ads. We are delighted to provide these music links as an added value to our gamers", said Troy Lyndon - Left Behind CEO - in a statement.
Well, it is clear that music at front and center in games is nothing new. But to give the users the oportunity to buy the music they're listening while they are playing the game is new. Left Behind: Eternal Forces will be initially released for the PC. A later version for Mac is planned.
