Anthrax is the latest band to collaborate with Iron Maiden's Legacy of the Beast mobile game.

Legacy of the Beast now includes a new level inspired by the "Madhouse" outfit's music, which allows you to play as their Not Man mascot alongside Maiden's Eddie character.

"Just the idea that our character is in a game with Eddie, and they get to fight alongside each other, [it's] kinda mind-blowing for me," says Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian. "It's kinda hard for me to put into words."

To play as Not Man, you'll need to log in to Legacy of the Beast any seven days between now and June 16.

Legacy of the Beast has previously featured levels inspired by Avenged Sevenfold, Motörhead, Ghost, Five Finger Death Punch and Disturbed.
