'Temple Run 3' Release Date in iOS & Android Next Month? Top 3 Gameplay Features Expected

By Maria Myka| Jul 23, 2015

Among the most popular smartphone games of all time is the "Temple Run" franchise, which is available on Android and iOS devices, as well as other platforms.

Of course, by now, fans are clamoring the sequel, and according to the website Gun Shy Assassin, chances are high that "Temple Run 3" is going to be released soon.

The developer of the game has yet to confirm the possibility of another installment coming pretty soon, but confirmation hasn't stopped fans from proclaiming that the sequel is underway, and soon.

Rumors say that the next installment is going to hit Google Play and the App Store as early as August this year.

If history is to be taken to account, it would make sense for "Temple Run 3" to be released in 2015. The first game was released in 2011, and the second in 2013.

However, considering the lack of updates, it will make more sense for the third installment to be released in January 2016, as the first and second versions were released in the same month.

With a combined one billion downloads, it is not likely that people will forget the game in the few short months of its delay.

What should fans expect from the next Temple Run to set it apart from 1 and 2, though? Ordoh reprts that there should be improved graphics, with more interesting spin-offs from the OZ movie.

However, high graphics and effects will mean that "Temple Run 3" can be expected to run well with high-end devices and large processors.

There is also the possibility of online gaming, the perk being that you don't have to download the game on your devices to be able to enjoy it, with the sequel expected to be at least as much of a success as its previous installments.

What are fans likely to look forward to in the new game? Swipe detection and compatibility with larger devices are reported to be some of the more common problems, so once these are fixed, fans of the game are likely to enjoy it more than ever.

The possibility of a resizable play area has also been mentioned as a feature to make the game more addictive than it already is.

Bring on the Evil Demon Monkeys, it's time for more of that adrenaline-pumping action.

Although rumors say that "Temple Run 3" is going to be released by August 2015 or January 2016, only its publisher, Imangi Studios can confirm further news, and updates may remain mere speculation.
