Electronic Arts has announced Medal of Honor: Dogs of War. Slated for release in the Spring
of 2005, Dogs of War is the latest game from EA's acclaimed Medal of Honor franchise which
has been credited with pioneering the First Person Shooter WWII genre when it debuted in
1999. Building on the hallmarks of the franchise, Dogs of War, advances on the series by
introducing players to a new way of playing.
Developed by EA Los Angeles (EALA), the
new title will be released under the EA GAMES brand for the PS 2, the Nintendo GameCube and
the Xbox.
Europe 1942. These are desperate hours for the Allied forces as the Nazi
war machine rages across a devastated European landscape. With the British on the brink, Lt.
William Holt of the OSS is sent on a secret mission by order of the President of the United
States. On his own, or with his squad, Holt is pivotal in helping to turn the tide in four
of the most crucial battles leading to victory in Europe.
As with the original Medal
of Honor, producers sought counsel from numerous expert sources to make certain the game is
historically accurate and as realistic as possible. The EALA development team continues to
work closely with the Congressional Medal of Honor Society to ensure that Medal of Honor:
Dogs of War reflects the ideals and integrity of the prestigious Medal of Honor. In
addition, Capt. Dale Dye, who served as Military Technical Advisor on the previous titles in
the Medal of Honor franchise, continues his efforts with the Medal of Honor: Dogs of War
team to ensure the authenticity of the experience.
