Mirror's Edge for iPad is now available at for $0.99 / €0.89, as part of Electronic Arts’ big games discount for the Holiday season.

“Grab hold of the cutting-edge gaming power of your iPad as you bolt into action as Faith Connors – an underground ‘Runner’ who must stop a deadly threat in a ‘perfect society’ full of sinister surveillance and relentless pursuers,” EA’s description reads.

The iPad version of Mirror's Edge comes with different controls, as well as a stripped-down gameplay (compared to the console version), so don’t expect the same experience.

However, you’ll still get to run up walls, slide down ramps, and ride zip lines, for the ultimate thrill in a visually stunning cityscape backed by an energetic soundtrack.

Via a split-screen interface, players can challenge friends on time and tactics in 2 game modes. Version 1.1.52 was just released with “behind-the scenes enhancements.” Download Mirror's Edge on any iPad running iOS 4.2.
