Eidos has announced
the return of Commandos in the World War II first person shooter Commandos Strike Force.
Developed by Pyro Studios, Commandos Strike Force will be released worldwide in spring 2005
on PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC.
In a new direction for the multi-million selling
series, Commandos Strike Force takes you right into the heart of the action from a first
person perspective. Take control of the three members of the Strike Force unit, each with
their own play style. Switch between the Green Beret, always at the heart of the action with
his expertise in combat and the use of heavy weaponry, the Sniper with his nerves of steel
and expert marksmanship, and the Spy, stealthily striking at the heart of the enemy.
However, it is up to you how you execute plans of attack by combining the Commandos' unique
skills.
Set in war torn Europe amid the backdrop of World War II, you must take your
elite group of Commandos behind enemy lines on a series of linked missions through France,
Russia and Norway. Destroying a Nazi ship, ambushing enemy troops, freeing French Resistance
prisoners and kidnapping a general are a few of the large range of missions. As well as a
compelling single player campaign, the game features a variety of original online
multiplayer modes. In the most fearsome war ever fought emerged the most fearless
soldiers.
Ignacio Perez, ceo of Pyro Studios said: By combining the tactical approach
of the previous Commandos games with the intense action of a fps, Commandos Strike Force
will provide a more cerebral approach to the war game genre. Strike Force is our most
ambitious project ever and we believe that this game will set a new benchmark for World War
II videogames.
