As you may have already heard, Modern Combat 5: Blackout is blasting its way onto the App Store this week.

What you may not know is that Gameloft's new military shooter is also invading other games - specifically, high octane arcade racer Asphalt 8: Airborne.

As part of an unusual cross-promotion, Asphalt 8 players will be able to zoom around a Venice track which is being bombarded by explosions, helicopters, and some more explosions.

This perk is part of a Time Limited Event which expires when Modern Combat 5 goes live on the App Store on July 24th.

What's more, navigate the war-torn track with skill, and you might even win a free copy of Modern Combat 5.

You can download Asphalt 8 for iPhone and iPad for free right now. Modern Combat 5 will go live this Thursday, and will set you back £4.99 / $6.99.
