Gameloft launched the “Gangstar Rio: City of Saints” for iOS back in November and promised Android enthusiasts that a version for Google’s mobile platform would be available sometime this year.

True to its promise, the well-known mobile game publisher and developer has just announced the immediate availability of the Android version of “Gangstar Rio: City of Saints” in the Google Play store.

The gameplay has lots of things in common with the popular Grand Theft Auto franchise, so those who are fans Rockstar’s series of games will like this one too.

Gameloft’s game features more than 60 missions with 5 different neighborhoods, as well as a gazillion of weapons, including handguns, bazookas, rifles and grenades.

“Gangstar Rio: City of Saints” is now available for download via Google Play for $6.99 and it should be fully compatible with all devices running Android 2.2 and up.
