Chillingo - who some might call the masters of the mobile games software, but most accurately known as a division of EA - announced a new partnership with one2tribe to bring The Witcher: Versus to Apple’s App Store.

The RPG/strategic combat games lets you choose between two classes (Sorceress or Frightener) to conduct fights and journey on quests. CEO of one2tribe, Wojciech Ozimek, explains that the iOS devices play as host to a new set of features in the previously strictly browser-based game.
