announced

Throwing
gamers into
a WWII like
no other,
Turning
Point: Fall
of Liberty
is set in an
alternate
1953 where,
following
the fall of
Europe, Nazi
forces
launch an
invasion on
the gateway
to the
United
States.
Opening with
decimating
attack on
New York
City,
players take
on the role
of
construction
worker Dan
Carson
caught in
the middle
of the
blitzkrieg.
As the city
is taken
block by
block,
players must
survive the
initial
assault
before
regrouping
with a team
of
resistance
workers and
lead a fight
back against
the
oppressors.
With the
Third
Reich's
sights set
on the seat
of
government,
the action
takes
players to
Washington
D.C. and,
eventually,
to a
startlingly
different
London,
which has
been flying
the Swastika
under Nazi
rule for
over a
decade.
Prepare to
fight afresh
on these
very
different
WWII
battlegrounds
when Turning
Point: Fall
of Liberty
arrives for
the Xbox
360® video
game and
entertainment
system from
Microsoft®,
the
PLAYSTATION®3
computer
entertainment
system and
