New Medal of Honor Title Announced

  • 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

    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.
