Outfront II (working title) is a sequel to the award wining title from last year. Outfront II combines real-time strategy with advanced tactics and the ability to control a single unit in battle. This game is being developed by the same team that created the original title, Soldiers: Heroes of World War II.

Faces of War thrusts gamers into the decisive battles of World War II in Europe. Players command American, English, Soviet and German troops while fighting famous conflicts such as the Normandy Invasion, the Battle of the Bulge or the Battle of Berlin in shocking detail. Thanks to complex artificial intelligence, soldiers don't simply execute any order given by a player, they think about how to do it in the most efficient and safe way. Faces of War takes combat gaming to a new level by integrating a psychological element.

In each mission of Faces of War, players will be leading a squad of 6 soldiers in a full 3D environment. Through the decisive European battles of World War II, they will be in command of Allied, Soviet and German troops. With innovative new in-game features, two battles will never be fought the same way.

Features :

  • 3D engine and advanced realistic physics allow complete freedom of tactical choices. With a free roaming camera and the addition of fully destructible environments, players will feel completely immersed in the reality of WWII.
  • Historical WWII campaigns with world-renowned battles including D-Day, winter missions and the storming of Berlin. The detailed reproduction of environments, military gear, vehicles and weapons underline the reality and intensity of the gameplay.
  • Complex artificial intelligence: soldiers won't simply execute any order given by players, they will think about how to do it in the most efficient and safe way.
  • Multiplayer Combat with up to 16.

Faces of War will be available in March 2006.
