Atari Announces 25 Km Sq FPS

  • Atari will bring Boiling Point: Road to Hell, a new first-person action game


    featuring a massive open-ended game world, to the personal computer in Spring 2005. Boiling


    Point: Road to Hell will combine intense armed combat with exploration and interaction with


    a vast and seamless open-ended gaming world. Boiling Point: Road to Hell is in development


    by Ukrainian developer Deep Shadows and is scheduled for release in Spring


    2005.


    Boiling Point: Road to Hell will push the boundaries of what people think


    first-person action games can do, with its unbelievable scale of the game world and the


    ability to choose your own path, said Wim Stocks, Executive Vice President, Sales and


    Marketing, Atari.


    In Boiling Point: Road to Hell, gamers will travel to the present


    day jungles of South America and battle competing factions in a brutal guerrilla war.


    Developer Deep Shadows' innovative game engine streams the beautifully rendered


    environment, creating a non-linear gameplay experience, with no loading times or separate


    levels, creating a continuous world spanning hundreds of miles. To make the most of the


    environment, a massive range of vehicles will be at the disposal of the player, as well as a


    vast array of weapons.


    The wide open game world features an array of different AI


    factions with which the player can interact, and hundreds of diverse missions to create an


    original experience each time the game is played. Combined with the vast seamless gaming


    world, the result is gameplay freedom and replayability on an unprecedented


    scale.


    Boiling Point: Road to Hell is scheduled for release on personal computer in


    spring 2005.
