Frozen Synapse has been announced for both iPad and Android tablets.

Developer Mode 7 Games released a new trailer for the mobile version, showing a demonstration of how the game's controls have been adapted for touchscreens.

"It has been a challenge condensing such a complex interface into a form that makes it viable on tablets," Mode 7's Paul Taylor said.

"However, the major attractions for many people - like zooming around the map with pinch-to-zoom and dragging waypoints around with a fingertip - are all present and correct."

The game will arrive first on iPad in May, with the Android tablet version launching soon after that.

No price has been set yet for the mobile version.

The iPad and Android versions will offer cross-platform play, allowing users to start a game on one device and continue their turns on another device or even in the PC, Mac or Linux versions.

A PlayStation 3 and Vita version of the game called Frozen Synapse: Tactics is also in the works, and is expected to release later this year.
