Via Ubisoft:
"Valiant Hearts: The Great War is the story of crossed destinies and a broken love in a world torn apart. It gives players the chance to live a touching yet comical adventure which focuses on the journey of four people as they brave the battles and difficulties of the Great War following their faithful canine companion.
All of the main characters are inextricably drawn together, and friendship, love, sacrifice and tragedy befall each as they help each other to retain their humanity against the horrors of war."
Of course the company has made tweak to the game, supporting touch controls, which seem to be perfect for this type of playable graphic novel. The publisher also notes that the graphics has been tweaked to support the beautiful Retina display.
