Eidos Interactive, one of the
world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, today
launched http://www.battlestations.net, a new website which will act as a central
resource for the upcoming epic game, Battlestations: Midway.
Battlestations: Midway is a vast action game that drops players into
massive air, sea, and undersea battles from Pearl Harbor to Midway. Players
are also challenged to strategically command massive fleet attacks and take
direct, real-time control of over 60 different warships, planes and
submarines in the battle. Blending intense 3rd-person action with
large-scale naval combat, the game brings to life the great Pacific battles
of World War II.
Featuring regularly updated media and game-related details, the new
website will play host to all of the very latest news and information on
the game to bring fans up to date on hot new developments as well as
providing downloadable, interactive content.
"For the first time, Battlestations: Midway will enable players to
directly control dozens of highly detailed warships, aircraft and
submarines in a 'free-control' environment," said David Bamberger,
marketing manager, Eidos Inc. "The launch of Battlestations.net is a
pivotal part of our ongoing campaign to update our broad fan base on key
developments for Battlestations: Midway and its upcoming release."
Battlestations.net also carries a dedicated forum for the
Battlestations: Midway community to discuss their latest news and views on
the game plus new 360 degree screenshots that drop players right into the
heart of the battle.
For details on the real historical events in the game, the website also
hosts a World War II Pacific Theater overview, a historical chronology on
the key battles in the game plus a section on war machines which offers
detailed information on the in-game units, with tactical hints and tips on
best use and weak spots.
Battlestations: Midway will be released in early Q1 2007 on the Xbox
360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and the PC.
