Midway's
highly
anticipated
World War II
FPS title,
Hour of
Victory,
will be live
and playable
for the
first time
next week
via Xbox
LIVEŽ
Marketplace.
Midway will
release an
exciting
single-player
teaser demo
on
Wednesday,
May 30,
providing a
glimpse of
the game's
cinematic
and frenetic
gameplay in
advance of
Hour of
Victory's
march to
retail
stores in
June.
The Hour of
Victory demo
will give
the player a
sneak peak
into the
rugged North
African
level.
Players will
be able to
pick any of
the three
characters
in the game,
the Covert
Operative,
specializing
in stealth
and
sabotage; a
British
Commando
specializing
in the
guns-blazing
frontal
assault; or
an Army
Ranger who
specializes
in sniping
and
demolitions.
Hour of
Victory
allows you
to play a
key role in
the pivotal
and
cinematic
battles from
the European
and North
African
theaters of
World War
II, using
the skills
and gameplay
style you
choose.
Sneak into
enemy
territory as
a covert
operative,
storm the
gates as a
British
Commando, or
snipe from
afar as an
Army Ranger.
Each
character's
unique
attributes
will be
needed for
the
fulfillment
of the
overall
objective.
Only with
all these
skills
working
closely
together
will you be
able to say
that you
helped
define the
Hour of
Victory.
Built using
the powerful
UnrealŽ
Engine 3.0,
Hour of
Victory
combines
authentic
details from
historic
World War II
battles and
adds in
frenetic and
cinematic
gameplay.
Players will
also be able
to take
control of
any vehicle
on the
battlefield
whenever
they wish as
they sharpen
their skills
to impact
the key
battles from
the European
and North
African
Theaters.
