Codemasters have announced the names of three new games set for a 2008 release.
The first game is Operation Flashpoint 2 which many PC players are probably quite familiar with. The game in question was, as many know, an almost entirely modifiable game experience.
The press release states:
- ”Building on the original game´s heritage, Operation Flashpoint2 will see the most realistic modeling of conflict scenarios in a new contemporary theater of war. By offering a multitude of military disciplines, gameplay will deliver warfare more realistic and intense then ever before, while an extensive multiplayer component will create battles on an incredible scale.”
The second game is for those with the desire to burn some rubber. Race Driver One is the third title in the Codemasters´ TOCA series. RDO will use the same game engine as Colin McRae: DiRT.
The press release states:
- ”Challenging players to become the number one race driver in a new world of exhilarating motorsport, Race Driver One will take players on a tour like never before; to beautifully realized racing locations through Europe, the U.S., Japan and beyond. The game will feature the most extensive range of events in the series, combining official circuit-based championships with road races and urban street competitions.”
The third game set for release is an action-RPG named Rise of the Argonauts, where players take the roles of fighters Jason and Hercules.
The press release states:
- ”Rise of the Argonauts will immerse gamers in a gladiatorial adventure, set in wondrously imagined vision of ancient Greece. With deep exploration and epic quests, players will live a life of brutal combat as they lead a team of iconic warriors including Jason, Hercules and Atalanta through a world ruled by mythological gods.”
The whole trifecta of games will be released on all of the major consoles as well as PC during the year 2008.
